Default Fuel Vapor 20"s - what does the 35mm offset mean/effect will it have?

This is a "Will these fit my LR4 question and what will be the impact of a 35mm offset" question - skip the next two paragraphs if you're in a hurry but can help! The question is about offset. I know nothing about non-spec wheels and what will fit, and the impact of going away from stock. My vehicle height is standard and I don't want to lift it, etc.

I have a 2016 LR4 which I bought a few months ago and which came with new Nitto Grabbers (they're a really good tyre and look great, so I'm going to keep them). They're on the standard 20" Landmark 'diamond cut' rims.

I need to get an additional set of rims for winter tyres, as we're moving to Canada. I really like the Fuel Vapors and want to use those as my normal rims and switch the Nittos to those, then put the new set of winters on my Landmark rims.

The vendor has confirmed they will fit; my question is specifically about the offset of 35MM and what that means for my set up. Picture of the wheel below. Link is here: http://www.fueloffroad.com/wheel-sizing-op...inishID=12

Wheel details:

Brand: FUEL

Model: VAPOR D560

Wheel Size: 4-20X9

Offset: 35mm

Bolt Pattern: 5X120 & 5X114.3 UNIVERSAL


Sku: D56020905263

Cheers!

Short answer is probably not. I'm pretty sure the correct 20" wheel offset is 53.

Definition: Wheel offset is simply the distance between the wheel's hub-mounting surface and its center plane.

Where are you moving from? I'll be selling a set of 19" LR4 wheels with Nokian winter tires around April 1st.

Thanks. I'm clear on what the offset is, I was just seeking to learn whether folks who have experience of non-OEM rims had any insight as to what non-spec ET might do to handling, etc.

Fuel have confirmed that the rims will fit and are within tolerance, but I'm interested in learning what rims you're selling, with what tyres and in what condition and remaining tread/why you're selling etc. I'd certainly consider them. I'm moving from NJ - 07458.

Let me know if that's an option. Thanks.
