Default wheel decision

trying to decide which wheels to go with, i have two options and need to know if i would have to roll my fenders with these offsets.

Vossen CV1. 19x8.5 +32, 19x10 +38
Weds SA67. 19x9 +30, 19x10 +42

and would i have any rubbing problems running 245 35 19 & 275 30 19.

Not too low. Just getting rid of the wheel gap. I'm dropped on stock 17s so I might have to raise the car back up.
