Okay, I think front wheels with the 34.5 offset should be fine.

On the back, the OEM offset is 48. If I put the 34.5 offset on, that's like subtracting offset (maybe), so that should push them out toward the fender 14mm, which is good. Then maybe I take the 1.5 narrower wheel and divide by two (half on one side of centre and half on the other side of centre?), so then I guess I'm .75" - 14mm = 19mm - 14mm = 5mm. So if I understand this (I'm not sure I do), then maybe the rear wheels would only be sucked in like 5mm from factory, which is just fine IMO for winters.

I could have messed up literally every aspect of the above, though.
