+40 front and rear should work with no fender mods

I had 20x10 +35 on rears with a mild stretch. Rolled my fenders and it stopped but the tires still rubbed in the wheel well. But as yakuza said, 40 should be good. I still think you would have to roll the fenders if you're going to slam it.

Since you changed your mind and decided not to slam it, then +40 would be good with a "little" drop. But still, I'd roll it being that it's 20's. You're still gonna get rubbing in you wheel well regardless going over humps at certain speeds. You can heat the plastic trim in the front with a heat gun and push it up to make the mold higher. That's just my experience with 20x8.5/10 + 35 all around at stock height.

Here's mines at stock height
