Im running 19 x 10.5 +13 fr/19 x 11.5 +19 in the rears. But I don't rub, stretched tires:225/35/19 fronts and 245/35/19 rears. Car is dumped static, fenders are rolled and my wheels are flush to the fender with about 1 1/2" from lip to fender. Anything less than that will clear just fine

Another 19 in wheel/tire option to consider:
Front:
Wheel: 19 X 8.5 +38 Tire: 245-35 - 19
Rear:
Wheel: 19 X 9.5 or 10 +38 Tire: 275-30 - 19
When running this combo with Michelin Pilot Super sports or Continental DWS (obviously NON run flats), they will fit flush to the wheel wells (within 1/2 inch) without modifications, and no rubbing, even over heavy bumps. As far as I know, you can even do a mild drop (around 1.5-2 inches) without problems with this combo.
Good luck....

This is what I have although I disagree about the "flush" part. Could use 5-10mm spacers still but looks good regardless.

I have been running on Forgestar 19" F14 8.5"+32F, 10"+36R. Michellin AS Pilot Sport. F 245/35 R 275/30. No fender mods, no rubbing. Wheels could use another 5mm of offset to be flush. Running with about 1" drop on Megan coilovers. See pictures in my garage.
