The only wheel that will not rub is the 19x10 +47.

There will be a certain level of rubbing in the front anyway because of the fat setup. The only rubbing you can try to minimize is the fender. The wheelwell cover will get rubbed here and there. As for the fender, you will need to at least roll them.

A combination of both. 19x8.5 +35 will PROBABLY not rub or 19x9 +41 will do the same. As far as the fender flush goes, these two specs are basically the same. I say PROBABLY because a lot also depends on your drop, alignment, and tires. I've seen x8.5 +42 have some minor rubbing while x8.5 +35 reporting none.

When you are trying to push the envelop a little bit (and I am not even talking about the VIP setups), you will just have to accept that it might just rub a little once you get it on.
