For the first setup run something around a +25 and +27 offset for the 8 inch and 8.5 inch wheel respectively. Run something like 235s in the front and 245s in the rear...

For the second, Run around a +30 offset for the front, and +35 for the rear, 245s for the front and 255s for the rear...

Just use spacers to compensate if you have to, this is for max flush, you may need to roll your fender in the rear, though its really easy to do...

BTW it would be a lot easier to run a 9 inch wheel with a +35 offset all around, 245s or even 255s and a 10-15mm spacer in the rear...don't be a poser

Yup, just run spacers till you are flush, careful though a 9 inch wheel with +45 offset may not clear suspension (though If I remember there is plenty of room). I would get 10mm spacers for the front, 15-20mm for the rear to be safe...
