Use a
offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference:

You'll be fine. Front's won't stick out at all... I had 19x8.5 +20 and I'm down to a 19x8.5 -5 now... You're worrying for nothing, you'll be good.

No problem. Specs such as lip can be a bit confusing. Lip will NOT alter the position of the wheel. Neither will diameter.

you'll need spacers just to get them flush.

you'll need a 30mm spacer on top of a 20 mm spacer to make them flush. That would be like a 10 wide wheel with et0.
