Question Looking for opinions from WORK wheels connoisseurs

A disc, R disk, O disk, offsets... they're confusing the crap outta me

Looking to put some 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 Work VS-XX's with 245-40-19 & 275-35-19 on my 09 G sedan. Not lowered, no BBK. Which setup do the wheel connoisseurs here think would look better:

19x8.5 +32 A disc up front & 19x9.5 +42 O disk in the back --> deep dish look all around, or

19x8.5 +40 R disc front & 19x9.5 +42 O disk rear for more of a staggered look?

I know the +40 R would clear the front calipers & won't rub (thanks quikrotary). My research tells me the +32 A should be ok as well but am looking for confirmation from some wheel experts on this board just to make sure. Any thoughts?

R disk is for bbk, A disk is for normal brakes and O is for deep dish. If you dont have bbk and want to go with the deepest dish I would go with a A disk up front and a o disk in the rear. 19x9 +38 A disk and a 19x10 +36 O disk and stretch a 225-40 and a 255-35 on there. I am sure other wont agree and I am sure other will say go more agressive.

I am not sure about coupes because I have a sedan. I would ask on of the coupe guys and again it depends what you want to do. Do you want to go aggressive/stretch, or not.

I'd want as big a lip as possible, I don't necessarily care to stretch a tire on there I'd rather run tires as wide as possible.
