I believe he worded it in correctly. The wheels have the same offset,
same width, and same backspace. What is different, is the clearance
for the brake caliper.

This is the same as the 15 x 6 wheels. They came is in the original deep 6
version and the later non deep 6 version. Both wheels had the same offset
and backspacing. What was different was the outer appearance of the space
between the spokes and the lip. On the deep sixes, it looks like the wheels
have a deeper dish, and on the later ones the dish is removed somewhat.

Here is a pic of both a late and early 15 x 6 spliced together to show the difference
