Default need help- rim depth

i going to be purchasing a set of work meister S1, im looking at their sizing chart and was wondering.

At the top of the chart, the column that says rim depth(mm), is that the distance from where the rim meets the wheel hub to the outside edge of the rim?

im going to get really wide rims and im trying to calculate how big i can go to run a flush square fitment. or how big of an over fender ill need.

i cant go based on offset and width alone because im getting a high disk for the fronts to accommodate a BBK in the future. The outer clearance would be different on an 18x10 +5 high disk vs an 18x10 +5 low disk.

So I figure i can use the "rim depth" as a guide to calculate how far the edge of the wheel will extend past the wheel hub. does this make sense?

heres the link

i think you might be getting the terms "rim" and "wheel" mixed up. "wheel" refers to the entire thing. "rim" is just the outer edge(or lip) of the wheel. my guess is that the rim depth is just the width of the rim(or lip) itself.
