Can I get a back up on the offset on these wheels?

I'm looking at some wheels for sale. Front 19x9 ET15, Rear 19x10 ET20.

So stock front 8" is a 0 offset, 9" means 0.5" further out, brake conversion is another 0.3", then minus 15mm(~1/2") and I'm just 0.3" (8mm) further out.

Rear stock 8" is +16mm. 10" means another 1" further out, minus 20mm and I'm only 5mm further out.

So these should all fit w/ no adapters. Possibly add a thin shim in the back to keep the track the same with as the front.

Might need a small spacer in the back to help inner wheel well clearance, but some hammering will be required either way.

Fronts fine.

This is provided the bolt pattern in correct of course, and an adjustable Panhard bar will most likely be needed
