It'll fit. Don't get wrapped up in the measurements, as they change wildly dependent on the tire manufacturer.
Can you put a smaller tire on a 9.5" wheel? Sure you can, but I wouldn't.
What's the point of buying 9.5" wheels if all you're going to mount on them is a 255 tire? At that point you should go with an 8.5" wheel instead.

The offset is correct. I don't want to do any major suspension mods for a good while. It's not on the top of the list. There are a number of other things first. I bought these because the deal was so good.
