Here is diagram explaining different offsets.

Basically the lower your offsets number the further out your wheels will sit in relation to your fenders. The reason for going with a size 11 and +15 offsets because it is the optimal size for the most concave face(SDC) and flushness. You can achieve the same flush fitment with a 10.5 +10 rear set up but I'm not to sure whether you can get the super concave look.

A -15 offsets on a 11" wheel will push your rear wheels beyond your fenders and into the hellas flush territory.
