I'm not looking for a lot of poke. You have to remember I'm wanting my tires edge to be flush fitting with my wheel edge. I don't want balloon tires nor do I want stretched tires. My end goal is a wheel fitment such as this

But without the stretch. I may have to run some stretch in the fronts but I don't think it will be much.

whatever floats your boat. the right offset does look good but I am not going to sacrifice ride quality, driveability or performance to achieve some trendy look : P

I wouldn't say drive ability is lost or performance really either. Now ride quality, that may be an issue but I doubt at this stage in my life it's really gonna bother me.

I'm getting my Forgestar F14s installed as we speak. I have the spec sheet from the distributor in front of me and I'm running a +35 offset in the front and a +48 offset in the rear. The wheels are 20" and I'm runnign a 9 in the front and a 10.5 in the back. If anyone cares to know what tires I chose, I went with Toyo Proxes 4. 295/30/20 R and 255/35/20 F. I will post pics very soon!

Doing an irs setup for what? The SRA is fine if you know how to set it up. You dont need rear camber.
