20's dont fit?

Hi guys, I bought a set of Sothis SC002 20x10 +25 offset wheels for my Active Hybrid but they weren't big enough to clear the front callipers? Didn't the hybrid come with 20s stock from the factory? Are there any things to look out for in order to make sure the 20s I buy will actually fit?

The reason I'm asking is because im planning to sell my 22s and get a set of 20s so I can run them year round with snow tires in the winter.

Thanks

How would that allow the caliper to clear? I thought the offset just dictate how far out the wheel sticks? Maybe I’m mistaken. Here is a pic showing the caliper touching the rim.

ET37 is the stock value.. and it ll fit though cant see the pic if you didnt forget to add..
in theory you need at least 12mm spacers to make those rims fit to your car..

Here are some pictures of the caliper actually touching the inside of the wheel. I am already running spacers front and rear. I think it’s just the design of the wheel that’s causing problems.
