Yes, i know for a fact that everything is ok.
They are XXXXX's rims and he did all the things you are asking about.
The outside diamter of the tires is equal to that of the OEM 15" wheels. Tires were bought accordingly (hence, 'low profile tires'...onlt the 'middle' of the tire is bigger)
This is the key when buying bigger rims. When people say, ill go from 14" to 18" to help fill in the wheel gap, if the proper tires are bought, it actually wont help with that at all.

So yeah, you are ok
