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.

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.

On top of fitment issues, you’re losing rubber up front and widening the wheelbase in the back. I would say probably not worth it.

Yeah, probably just going to put the BBS' on ebay and put it towards either a Tirerack or OEM snow tires/rims.
