Default wider tire/rim combo for nnbs /w bushwackers

Hey guys, just bought the oem style bushwacker guards so now the fenders are going to stick out even further...want to make a wider rim/tire combo so it doesnt look dinky like the ultimate GFX edition trucks.....looking at an 18x9 rim with around a +10 - 20 offset....dunno what size tire. the local shop was recommending to go 20" rim due to it pushing the tire wider and not to go lower than 10mm offest or ill rub for sure.....i think an 18" would be better for doing some light offroading not to mention cheaper. and im sure you can still get the extra inch or two width with a 18"....I have a 1.5" level as well. not too concerned about tire height. my stock 32" is plenty!!! Thanks for your input!

Ok that post was kinda all over the place. forgive my spelling im using my phone and have big thumbs lol... Basically im looking for a coupke inches extra width so new tire is flush with the bushwacker fender flares. whats the best size tire to achieve this while maintaining 32" or approximate height and little to no rub with +12 offset 18x9 rim. thanks dont
Forget the 1.5 " level i have
