offset dosnt effect brake clearance.

But with that offet you’ll need a 40mm-ish spacer to make them look at all not like poo.

Spoke design will determine if you will or will not clear the caliper.

Food for thought, (single support bar on the back of the spoke only… google it) some stock 7 spoke wheels clear the 300zx 26mm calipers…
