Wheel size options for v8 Vantage

I'm looking into purchasing some wheels for my Vantage. I understand wheel offset but I’m looking for anyone who is running 19x8.5 et35 front and 19x9.5 et 20 in the rear. Any issues with rubbing or tires sticking out past the fenders?

Just stick a ruler on your tire at max bulge. 15mm at the front and 42mm at the rear. Take a photo from directly above. See if it extends past your fender.

Thanks. I looked at it again and see what you’re talking about. I should be able to get away with a 40 offset right?

There are a ton of threads covering this topic. Just google it and look through the various threads on 6-speed and you will find it. I have a DB9 so cannot help, but I know due to my research there are a ton of threads covering it.
