exactly. you don't need wider wheels if you're only looking to achieve a slightly wider rear

True you could do this but you just have to try and make sure the backspacing in the wheel is as close to factory specs as possible otherwise you will cause increased stress and premature wear to the wheel bearings. There has to be a proper balance between wheel width and offset. So if you increase offset without increasing wheel width you will end up with the wrong backspacing and will probably decrease the life of the bearings. If that is an acceptable trade-off then go for it.
