cool.
I would wait for someone to confirm what I've said.
also, at the very top is an offset calculator -- it could be of some help too.
good luck,

1) cause the tires to stick well outside the fender well, which may be illegal (don't know about Canadian laws),
2) force the outer corner of the tire to rub on the inside of the fenderwheels (front and/or back) went turning lock-to-lock due to the geometry,
3) increase torque steer as the wheels are now father apart, which accentuates the difference in torque transfer (just a physics point of view... I could be mistaken though).
Remember, a "good deal" is only good if you can use the product... Don't know how many cars out there use +24mm offsets, but at least in the Maxima/Altima world, you probably won't see it.
