Actually on the fronts you can go all the way down to mid or high twenties. Rears mid thrities.

True, I did 20mm spacers all around and the fronts looked like they could use even more for a perfect flush, so you could use lower offsets in the front than in the rear

20x8.5 +35 offset may not fit. i suggest you should get at least +25 on 8.5 wheel

you should get +32 on 10 inch wheel for the rear

i recently tried on some wheels that are 8.5 with mid 30 offsets and they did not clear the S brakes. that's why i said they may not fit.
