These wheels have very little brake clearance... and your car has huge brake calipers.

How is it any different than the OEM wheels with the same offset?

Different wheel designs have different spoke patterns which affect brake clearance.

Keep in mind that spoke design normally will have more to do with brake clearance than offset.
