What would be the ideal offsets for the following wheel sizes without rubbing:
TIA.
- 20x9 fronts | at least 3" lip
- 20x10 rears | at least 4" lip
- 245/35/20 fronts
- 285/30/20 rears
TIA.

Offset of 20mm for front and 25mm for rear. You won't have to worry about rolling your fenders.

Those offsets I provided are with the 3" and 4" lips in mind.

If you go with reputable companies like iForged, VIP Modular and etc... they should know what the offsets are to fit your car, either dropped or not.
The reason why forged wheels are expensive because you can custom them like how aggressive you want them to be, color and lip size. However, some companies do not disclose their offsets because they dont want other companies to know.
The offsets VT gave were about right.
