Quick offset question

I have got ET38 at the moment, if i was to go to a ET30 for example would the wheel stick further out from the arch or be further in.

This Calculator suggests to me if i am reading it right that it would be further in the wheel arch with 30.

Cheers

The less the offset you have the further out the wheel will sit

ET30 on the same rim width will make the wheel stick further out from the arch.

I think that calculator is confusing try this one here

That calculator is much better, thanks Jim. I think i will order my wheels now, i know that the offset difference was going from Et38 to Et37 (yes only 1mm) but i wanted to check which was it was going. Not allot of room under the front cycle wings.
