Need some standard Suzuki rims - SA

Have purchased a 96 coily from interstate and have to go through a plate and identity inspection at Transport SA.

Looking for some standard rims to put on the car temporarily.
- It has chunky 31 and some weird deep offset spoked rims that hang out past the guard on it now.

There are standard Vitara rims available in SA cheap on ebay and at the wreckers.
But the "bible" lists Vitara rims as being a slightly different offset from Sierra.
Sierra 15' x 5.5" 10P vs Vitara 15" x 5.5" 25P

What does 10p vs 25p mean? will these hang out past the guard.
There is a link in the bible to https://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html for rim ofset info, but it don't work....

Comments? thoughts?

Actually just read somewhere on another forum that coilys - mine is a 96 coily actually have the same offset as a vitara, is that true?

Ive got 5 standard sierra rims and rubber in decent nic that I could prob lend you if you get stuck. They're off a 91 WT, just upgraded to 30's, so they're road worthy.
