I have made my decision to go with a 20" staggered set up with 20 x 8.5 up front and 20 x 10 in the back. I am going to go with a +30 offset in the front and have not yet decided what offset to go with in the back. The wheel manufacturer recommends +38, but I think I can pretty easily go to +33 without any rubbing issues. I currently am not planning on lowering, but I want to get an offset that works if I do end up lowering on the future. Any wheel fitment experts want to chime in? I have gone through the wheel and tire sticky and I like the look of the 10.5 rears with +38 offset. I think a +33 with a 10 inch rear gets me to about the same stance. Any wheel experts want to chime in?

38 on a 10.5 will sit nice. You could always get the 38 to be safe and then add a 5mm hubcentric slide on spacer to get to 33 or get a 3mm spacer to get you to 35. I ran a 3mm slide on hubcentric akata spacer and no issues at all but it's amazing what 3mm will do (but that's not what she said lol)
Edit: just noticed you said 20x10 not 10.5 on rear so 33 will probably work. Use the www.willtheyfit.com website to get a visual representation of the difference with offset. I use it and it always works good for me
CJITTY. Thanks for the link. www.willtheyfit.com confirms the calculations I did on a spreadsheet earlier. A 10" wheel with a +33 offset and a 10.5" wheel with a +38 offset poke out more than stock (7.5" wheel with +32 offset) by about the same amount (30.8mm and 32.1mm respectively) so the stance should be about the same.
Update: I have had my new wheels on the LS460 for a couple of months now (it took over 5 months to receive due to factory back order) and I love the set up. Here are a couple of pictures I took with my phone. I will try to post better pictures later.
