Snow tire/rim offset question.

Let's preface this by saying I am completely ignorant when it comes to offset

I've got an old set of BBS RS-GT's sitting in my basement
19x8.5 +15 Fronts
19x10 +25 Rears

I believe the stock rims are
20x9.5 +25
20x10 +55

I have CCBs and measured in inside of the BBS barrels, no problem with clearance.

Just wondering if it's safe to run the BBS' or if I just need to buy another set of rims.

I don’t believe they will fit properly

you can can still bring them to a wheel shop for a test fit though and see how the look

These numbers and diagrams right? I’m more worried about stressing components by having wheels that are outside OEM position 10-30mm

I do have 12mm spacers at back and the wheel is almost flush to the fender, that means the rim with offset +25 will sit outside at least for 18 mm by your screenshots. it's not possible to ride with that offset. The front will works.
