What offsets are you running? 35 is usually flush with e9x and anything lower would be aggressive.

You do have a bit of space to play with the 19x8.5 ET33 in the front. It's always best to follow this guide when determining the spacer to use for your vehicle.

I am currently personally running on a 19x8.5 ET32 with a 5mm spacer making it a ET27 with a 235/30/19 tire without any rubbing issues. I've also ran a 19x8.5 ET32 with 10mm making it a ET22 with a 235/30/19 (rubbed at a full turn of the wheel). Feel free to shoot me over a PM if you have any questions at all!
