Offset has less to do with clearance than the design of the wheel/spokes. Your best bet is to print the brake template (stickied here: https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...templates.html) and try it for yourself, or send it to whichever vendor you're planning to buy from. I had +38 wheels that cleared and +27 wheels that didn't.

Do you have the model for the wheel? Might have been used around here before and can maybe confirm that way too

The 20" Rohanas clear, not 100% sure w/ the 19s tough. Might contact getyourwheels.com and see what they say.

That is the correct template placement, as long as the template is printed to scale
There is a little wiggle room in the template but looks like you might need a real thin spacer, like a 3mm, this should still allow you to use your OEM wheel studs.
