Default Correct Offset for staggered ?

Hello all, when looking to purchase wheels for a 2010+ GT, what is the correct offset?
I would be looking at a staggered set of either 20x8.5/20x10 or 18x8.5/18x10. For example, would the offset listed below be about right? I like the wheels to come out fairly flush with the fender. I love my C/S wheels but don't like how deep they sit in the wheel wells.
Thanks for the help!

Rim Width: 20x8.5 & 20x10
Offset: +36mm & +45mm
Number of Bolts: 5
Bolt Pattern(s) (millimeters): 5 x 4.50 or 5 x 114.3
Section Width: 255 & 295

that is a fairly standard offset for that size. they will fit aggressively and pretty close to flush.

this is what I've been using for reference - newages' stang with some vossens.

20x9 +32 and 20x10.5 +45

most people that buy wheels for the mustang go to american muscle and such and just trust that the fitment will be correct. they don't really list or inquire or care about offsets. it was like pulling teeth trying to find offset info on any aggressively equipped stang.
