Robert K- There are guys on here running similar offsets, but with 20s. I'm sure with the 19s it'll allow some good wiggle room as far as clearance. I did notice you want to run very little camber, so the wheel sizes you chose seem to be a good choice given those tire sizes.
Lots of great set ups in this thread!

Agreed. Get lime green instead. 
High 30s will be hard to do without adding a lot of camber and a low drop. I have a daily driver with frequent little travelers. I couldn't clear rear +34s with 285s on an Eibach-like drop and -2.2 camber.
Edit: For reference, here are old pics of the +34 before swapping them out for +45s.
i did alot of thinking i couldnt make up my mind between low offsets and stretched tires or high offsets and fat tires. since my car is daily driver and i dont want fender pulling issues. i decided to go wit fat tires and offsets in high 30's with a 295 tire on 10.5 rim

Here's my application to the "Fat Tire Nation"
Wheels are Nutek Bavaria BC5 Matte Black 8.5"x20" +40 front, 10"x20" +45 rear. Tires Toyo Proxes 4 Plus 245/35/20 & 295/30/20. Hats of to Lance (1cleanG) for hooking me up w/ Kris at GOTO racing, he bent over backwards to get the offsets exactly as I wanted and kept me well informed throughout the transaction. Definitely recommend them to anyone looking for G parts. Lance & Kris are co-owners GOTO Racing Online
Fronts are about 7mm from the inner fender edge (I had previous wheels spaced to be almost flush but they'd hit the under liner too often so I wanted them back a bit more. The rears are 2mm from the inside fender edge, exactly what I wanted.
Amazing how well the G feels planted w/ the wider tires and traction is no longer an issue, G launches rock solid.
The wheels were recently released from Nutek and a few Lexus IS have them but I think I'm the first G. At any rate, couldn't be happier
