Default 19 inch HRE 891R with an offset of 41 fit a GS400 with the StopTech BBK

I have HRE 447R's on my GS400 with offsets of 31 front and 37 rear to accommodate the StopTech BBK.

Will an HRE 891R (19 inch) with 41 offset (same width 8.5 in front) fit on my car and accommodate the StopTech BBK?

At first glance based on the diagram below, it appears that on the wheel with 41 offset there's even more space for bigger brakes. Am I getting that right?

The offset of the wheel doesn't really determine whether or not a wheel will clear a BBK set-up. The parameter you're going to want to look at is what they call the 'disk type.'

Here's a link that goes into detail about various disk types.
