C - bore is the Centre Bore ie: the size of the hole in the centre of the rim (usually a standard size)

+1 etc... generally refers to the offest of the rim.

JJ is the width of the rim, not sure what j on its own is

The function of this Australian Design Rule is to specify wheel 'Rims' that will retain a deflated tyre in the event of a rapid loss of inflation pressure.

from the information given yes, http://www.rims-n-tires.com/rt_specs.jsp have a look here at how offset works. but without the actual context of the question that is the best i can do for you.

this is the full question

Part of the design process is to develop familiarity with the industry through gaining an understanding of the specific terminology used within the given industry. Your task is to provide an explanation of the following terms and how they apply to this project

* Offset
* Materials used/ manufacture methods used within the industry.
* 3, 4, 5, 6 stud design.
* Plus one and Plus two fitment (and beyond).
* Inches vs Centimeters (or millimetres).
*Benefits (positives) and detriments of larger wheel fitments.
* P.C.D
* C-bore
* J (or JJ) safety rim

"Plus one" describes where the rim diameter is increased by one inch, "Plus two" describes where the rim diameter in increased by two inches, and so on.
