Default Offsets for AWD

Hey, does anyone know what the offsets would be to be flush with the fender on a 8.5 wheel?

I know that stock AWD is 17x8 +45 - I'm trying to get 18x8.5's but would find it reassuring to know someone who's done the same.

I'm a bit of a nub when it comes to this stuff and would appreciate the help. Thanks

many people run staggered on AWD, there's plenty of threads on that matter

just make sure to pick proper tire size to minimize possible risks
