Luke,
I am 90% certain the rear wheels you captioned will be a problem. There is not enough offset. On my BMW Composite wheels, they are 9" wide rims and have a 23mm offset. An inch wider should have a higher offset because there is no more room on the fender side for additional wheel width. IMO 10" is the max because the rear strut will become a factor with wheels wider than 10".

Regards,
Simeon
