Well 8 width and +42 is already crazy offset. In the wrong direction, I'm afraid.

Think more width and lower offset

Without flaring/rolling you will probably get stuck somewhere around 9-9.5" wide and +30, which is really not all that aggressive.

if you want them to sit flush, then you probably don't want to go any lower than +30 offset and 8.5's. here's a look at mine, the rears are 19x8.5 +33 offset, they almost stick out past the fenders, but i haven't had any rubs yet, then again i'm also not lowered yet.

thats my setup at 9.5 wide with +30 offset and it sticks out about 1/4 - 1/2 an inch past the fender thats also with alittle stretch on the tires. but u should be able to get away with it if u just go negative on the camber
