6UL in 15x7.5 with 34mm offset

I'm looking at these wheels on 949racing.com's website and it says it should fit the Mini.

I know with Subaru's there is an ideal offset +/- 2mm that you should use based on a given wheel width.

So is 34mm in that range for an ideal offset for a 7.5 wide wheel? Would I be adding more stress to the wheel bearings?

This would be for a stock 2005 Cooper with stock suspension driven on the streets.

Currently the stock holies (hollies) are 5.5 with a 45mm offset. According to an online calculator I would have 14mm less on the inside and it would extend an extra 36mm on the outside.

Thanks in advance for the replies.
