Asymmetric refers to the rim profile (offset) and not to the drilling

Ok. So I build the rear with offset holes on the drive side? What about the front?

Heldring in reply to @sykodrama

Non-drive. The idea is that the offset makes for a 'better triangle' and thus the wheel will be more beefy. Asymmetric on the front is pointless but I think tester pointed out earlier that you won't die from building a front wheel with an asymmetric rim
