19x8.5 +38 & 19x9 +42

Any idea what that will look like on the 8?

Will it stick too deep inside? How far approx. from the outside fender?

I have 19" X 8.5" upfront with 38 mm offset and it just barely scraped the caliper, put a 6.5 mm spacer in there & it works fine now. My rears are 19" x 9.5" with 35 mm offset. A 42 mm offset may be too recessed (too far in) & you may scrape the caliper. My 8.5" & 9.5" are perfectly aligned with the outside of the car.

front 19x8.5, 5x114.3, offset +26
back 19x9.5, 5x114.3, offset +22

I'm new at measuring backspace etc.. so can anyone tell me how this would look? Any info is much appreciated, thanks!
