Default Offset question?

ONe of my rims got curb checked when i got into an accident. My wheels are a 43 offset. Will i have any trouble replacing the scratched rim with a rim that has a 42 offset.

Thats not enough to make much of a difference at all....but why not just get a replacement wheel with the same offset?

spend it and do it right...I'm a firm believer in doing stuff right. Don't take shortcuts. I mean really 75 bucks is dinner and a movie with a girl....it's not that much. Even though it really shouldn't make any difference, do it right.
