Help... Offset Q!

Sorry - I'm having brain fade!

I currently have 25mm spacers and a ET10 wheel to clear my calipers.

Would an ET20 wheel and 15mm spacer offer the same clearance, or am I off in completely the wrong direction (again)?

Doesn't it depend on whether it's positive or negative offset?

As mike said,

ET10 + 25mm spacers = ET-15

ET20 + 15mm spacer = ET5

ET20 + 35mm Spacer = ET-15

(PS the wheel must really pull when you have low tyre pressure, or hit a bump on one side?)
