20x8.5 Offset?

So I'm looking at 20x8.5 and 20x10 wheels but have been leaning towards 20x8.5 for weight and wheel availability reasons.

Assuming I go with a 255 tire, what offset will be flush with the fenders? (Similar to a 20x10 +40 w/ 275 40 20 tires)
 
There are different offset options available. +42 is common. Anybody have pics from an angle with 20x8.5 +42 ?

I'm looking for an offset that is very flush with the fenders, unlike the OEM 19s. I'm thinking +35 offset will be the most flush. +40 seem good in the front, but not the back.

Ok, my local wheel shop recommended 20x9 +35 with 275/40/20 tires. The tire diameter is spot on but I'm not sure about the offset.

Does anyone run +35 offset on 20s that can chime in?
 
Bump. The 20x9 wheels I'm looking at only come in a +32 offset. Anyone think they will stick out too far? I'm not good at this offset stuff....
