Glenn,
I am using the Panasport 15" x 7" rims on my TR-3 race car.  I discovered the 
hard way that the offset was somewhere between 1/2" to 1" greater than my 
widened out Triumph rims.  I therefore lost some track that I had with my 
widen out steel Triumph rims.
I think the offset is 3 inches for the Triumph rims.  Lay down the rim and 
measure it to be sure.  You also may run into clearance problems with the 
upper ball joint.  I installed 3" Morosso studs in the hubs and stack a 1/2" 
and 1/4 aluminum plates on each side, which eliminates clearance problems.
