Default offset on EK

(searched, but i dont understand the answer)

i have an EK sitting on Apex'i W/S coilovers, no camber kit.
will a 15x7.5 32mm offset rim fit without fender modification?
in searching i found this offset calculator

http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

with the calculations i get i dont understand what "MORE" and "EXTEND" mean, so i still dont know if this rim will clear the strut and if it will stick out of the fender.

currently i am running a 16x7 40 offset and 215/40/16 tires. this combination gives me no problems.

i dont know what width tire would be recommended for a 15x7.5 rim either. i dont like the streched tire look, and i dont like tire sticking out of the fender.

can the experts here provide some advice?
thanks

I think it means that there is 2mm More room from the back of the wheel to the struts, and that the front of the wheel will stick out another 14mm
