Default fitting rims, quick question

hey there, im trying to pick the proper offsets for my rims... i'm doing a 20x8.5 in the front and a 20x10.5 in the back. now the front offset will be 35mm and i have a choice of the back offset of 45 or 35. whats better? would 35 yield a larger lip in the back?

Default Offset and lip depth are not intrinsically related

I'd recommend contacting the company that you're planning to purchase from and ask them directly what they can make and what their fitment recommendations are.
