Wheel Offset (32mm or 38mm Front)

I've read numerous posts about rims & am still a bit confused on the perfect offset for flush rims.

For a 22" x 10.5 " rim, what's the best offset for the rear & front?

I'm assuming 35mm for the front with stock brakes is the best for being flush? Some have said 32mm??? What if I go with stoptech aftermarket rotors? Will 35mm still clear?

I'm also assuming 40mm is perfect for the rear & 38mm is near perfect, but sticks out slightly?

I am on RM mid drop springs as well. Any help will be appreciated. My rims have 40mm offsets & I'm trying to figure out what spacers I'll need.

I picked to have all +40mm so I can rotate them properly. 5mm (0.197") hubcentric spacers do no harm..anything larger may be asking for trouble. I have more than enough hub sticking through to keep everything right. I've also run some quick FEA on the wheel studs & the load they'd be introduced to whilst utilizing a 5mm spacer..nothing substantial. Plus, the custom made spacers will eliminate any vibrations. The +40mm is flush as can be in the rear on RM mid drop & the front needs 4mm to clear the brembo calipers, but I'll be doing 5mm spacers for peace of mind.
