Offsets and tire sizes should be fine but there's no guarantee that the wheel spokes will clear the calipers. Maybe you can get that info from Iforged? Or negotiate the right to return the wheels if they don't clear the calipers?

I agree.
For instance, my 11" rear with 305's and ET 35 works like a charm. No rubbing what so ever!
Regarding the calipers though, I don't know...
Good luck.
