You've got it right!
Unfortunately when it comes to cars you usually have to sacrafice performance in one area to gain in another. The lower the offset, the farther the wheel and tire sit from the hub. This will affect caster and camber gain on the front wheels when turning which can lead to a number of handling problems. Now, that being said, most people aren't going to be able to notice the difference between a +22 offset wheel and a +40 offset wheel, but it does make changes to your car's handling characteristics. So you have to decide weather you want to sacrafice a little bit of handling for a better look, or the other way around. Its not going to be a huge sacrafice either way in this particular case though, but your theory is on point.
