15x8.5 rims on a clubman?

Hello I'm currently in the process of replacing my old stock rims finally!!

I drive a 2011 Mini clubman S.

I am eyeing the Klutch sl1s 15x8.5. I am wondering if this size is even possible on a clubbie? I cant seem to find pictures nor much info on it..
Thanks!!

The package im looking at come with the
"ACHILLES ATR SPORT 195/60/15" tires .

There aren't a whole lot of 15" wheels that will fit over the brakes of an S. The offset makes a big difference too.

I'm noticing...do you think it'd be possible with 16x8? Or go back to the drawing board?

16x8s would open up a lot more possibilities.
