Not sure what you're tying to accomplish....but if you want to have a nice staggered fitment and its looks, try what I did....

19x8.5 +35 offset - 245/35/19 front
19x9.5 +45 offset - 275/30/19 rear

or if you want just a nice sporty look (not so agressive)....

19x8.5 +35 offset - 245/35/19 ALL AROUND....

It all depends on the wheels you're getting also...not all manufactureres have these offsets....but in any case talk to whomever you're buying the wheels from and explain what you want and they will help you with the best set up.

good luck.

Do the 19x8.5 +35 wheels come out past the fender?

No...with that set up 19x8.5 +35, you will have a nice flush look all around. Keep in mind the stock set up is 17x7 +45....this new set up looks nice. I am getting 20x8.5 +35 with 245/35/20 this week.

You will be safe, but talk to your wheel person to be 100% comfortable.

I recommend 19x8.5 +38mm with 245/40/19 tires. That +45mm offset will not look good IMO.

According to this site:
http://gs.tolan-hoechst.com/tirecalc.htm

Tire height 215/55/17 (Stock) = 26.31 inches
Tire height 245/40/19 (Me) = 26.72 inches
Tire heught 245/35/19 (You) = 25.75 inches
