When buying rims, how do we know what offset to get if we want a flush look?

You can put in your current wheel specs and what the new ones would be. It will tell you how much the wheels will stick out, or in compared to the wheels currently on your car. It will also tell you how much more/less inner clearance (between wheel and suspension) you will have.
Another great thing to do (as I spent countless days doing) is search through the pic forum and/or fitment threads to get a visual of how the wheels fit on other peoples cars. There are a few posts floating around

Aim for about +30 in the front and +40 in the rear.

I strongly suggest a simple 1" drop though, it will tie everything together much better.

Sorry don't have on a coupe, but here's one of Grant's Sedan.

They're nice wheels for sure!

You would need to change the rear tire and roll the rear fender flat. You would need to run a few degree's of neg. camber, or pull the fender, and run less neg. camber. The rear fitment is similar to mine (20x10 +25) and I am rolled flat with a slight pull and -2.1 degree of camber. You would want to match the O.D of the front and rear tires being that you have an X.
I think you can make it work, but IMO you are better off with a square set-up or go with a slightly less agressive staggered set-up.

The rear offset is a little on the low side for you height.

What spacers would you guys recommend I run for a more flush fit? 19x9.5 wheels all around

They will be very sunken in, but yes they will work...

+22 offset all around. not sure on the camber until I get another alignment, and all fenders have a mild roll

I am lowered as well. I just want a cheap winter set up, would it look decent with some 20mm spacers?
