Default Wheel Offset

Getting my P+ in a few month and looking for a set of beefier wheels and tires for occasional trail use. I also want the wheels to sit more flash with the fenders but not to stick out too much. The stock 22s are 265/50 with 55mm offset. I'm eyeballing a set of OZ wheels 18/8 with 25mm offset wrapped in 275/70. The wheel calculator says it's a gain of 30mm (closer to the fender). Any experiences with this or similar setup? I want to avoid any sort of rubbing.

this is +18....A higher positive offset will bring it towards the center of the car. Lower than this or negative will bring the tire further out

+25 will bring it 7 mm inwards than the photo shown. Most people like a +30 or +35 if you need full articulation, but there aren't many rims currently at that offset

Any rubbing at +18? I presume you have a non-lifted OT?

I'm also concerned with the overspray. We live in the PNW and it rains here 8 month a year. Do you have to wash your car more often?
