Looking at a set of wheels with offset +22. Not sure how offset work, can my 22 gt awd fit them? Thanks
 
With +22 offset, I am guessing it's at least 9inch wide wheels. Will stick out. For the front, you don't wanna go wider that 8.5 with +30-32 offset, if you want a flush look. Can be more flexible with rear, if you wanna go with staggered setup.

If your stock wheels are the staggered 19s, they should be 8" +34 fronts, and 8.5" +46.5 rears. Adding 20mm spacers is a common change to bring the stock tires out to flush, and this is the equivalent of swapping to 8" +14 offset fronts, 8.5" +26.5 offset rears (so fronts would be halfway between stock tuck and flush, while rears would poke out 4.5mm more than the stock 8.5s with 20mm spacers, or the equivalent to adding 1" spacers).

But if they're 8.5" all around, I think your fronts will end up about the stock 8s are with 20mm spacers (because the +22 offset shifts them 12mm outward, and the 1/2" wider wheel adds 1/4" or 6.25mm inside and out, ie equivalent to stock 8s with 18.5mm spacer).

If they're 9" all around, your fronts will be about where stock 8s with a 25mm spacer would be (12mm shift from offset and 1/2" or 12.5mm added inside and out). Your rears will be about 11mm or 1/2" further out than stock 8.5s with 20mm spacer (24.5mm shift from offset and 1/4" or 6.25mm inside & out from 1/2" wider wheels).

Happy to have someone check my math...
