This doesn't entirely make sense, meaning why are replicas hitting the calipers at +24mm offset? Aren't the stock 22's +28mm offset, thus being the back of the hub is 4mm further away from the centerline of the wheel, making the wheel face tuck in towards the caliper? So shouldn't a +24mm offset wheel provide more room against the caliper? Does it depend on certain types of replica wheel styles?
I can't speak from personal experience on the reps but its possible that the 24 offset that sticks out 4mm more has spokes that come back in and thus rub the caliper or other suspension components. Maybe just not perfectly matching replicas.

Not sure. Like I said this is one reason why I got OEM wheels so I don't have to worry about this stuff
