Okay, so right now my car has 235/45 R17 front & rear. As far as I know the wheels are 17x8 with an offset of 20mm. However, the wheels are 15 years old and likely not maintained well so they are corroded to hell.
The wheels I want to replace them with are 17x8, offset of 15mm though. Will they fit? Will they fuck my car? I understand what offset means I just don't understand anything more than that.

Bump please help, need to know if current tires will fit the new wheels

If the width is the same and diameter is the same then the same size tyre will fit. You can also go a couple of sizes wider or thinner and they will still fit.
The offset should be fine, it will push the wheel further away from the hub by 5mm because 0 offset is the mounting surface being right in the middle so adding offset is moving the mounting surface towards the outside of the wheel. Most cars will have enough room for 5mm less offset
