Opinions on Rim offset setup

Anyone have issues running a 35 offset dropped on S-techs (5th gen). I'm getting 18" Enkei RSV's 7.5 wide. Or should I go with the 40's? The more aggressive stance I can go the better but I'm trying to avoid rubbing.

Thanks

18x7.5 +35 will not rub.

What tire size will you be running?

I have S-techs with 19x8.5" rims and 245/35/19 tires all around with a 38mm offset and 15mm spacers at the rear and 5mm spacers up front. No rubbing issues.

No pics yet. Not putting them on as the evenings are still cold here and there is still salt on the roads from winter. Hopefully in the next week or so once I see a consistent trend of warming up.
