So if you go with the rims that match your current, you'll get 1/4 of an inch further in on the front due to the narrower rims, and on the back it'd be 13.5mm outwards due to the lower offset of the rim, but 0.75" (19mm) inwards due to the narrower rims I think? So both front and back would look about 1/4" inwards compared to now?

Lol this is one of the reasons I just ended up getting winter tires and putting them on my existing wheels which is also staggered.
Yeah, that was my original plan, except winter tires for my car are jaw-droppingly expensive. Was quoted $576/back tire and almost $400/front tire. Add on balancing/mounting/tire tax and I was over $2k just for tires. This wheel/tire package I'm looking at with four 8" rims (versus OEM 8.5 front and 9.5 back) comes to $1700 including TPMS/tax/delivery/balancing/etc. And the winters are Blizzaks not some off brand or anything.
