those are tire sizes, not offsets. Offsets are the metric measurement of the wheel backspacing from the center of the wheel the center being 0, and the backspacing being the inside of the rim that bolts to the hub of the car. offsets that are to high can cause you to rub inside the wheel well up against the engine compartment wall. lower offsets will bring you out closer to the fender side causing you to rub on the liner/fender/roll guard etc. Those tire sizes are also over spec by and inch meaning that the overall diameter of the wheel is an inch larger than the factory wheel thus throwing off the speedo and causing you to possibly rub more so than if the tires were in spec. I have low offsets and ride super low and don t rub at all, but I also have stretched tires, and my fenders are shaved.
