255/45/18 and 275/40/18 is what i ran on mine. I work in a tire shop so I read all of Michelin and Bridgestones tire size/width recommendations. Worked out great now that i bought my new wheels and was able to transfer the tires straight over. (Stayed with 18's. 9.5" in front and 10.5" in the rears.) I may go to a 295/35 after i finish this set though.

I want more tires all around and want the fat tire look .
Bad idea! thats a super tall tire for the 19's and if you ever lower it, you will rub like crazy on the liners. Even at stock height, im sure you will rub. A 255/40/19 and 285/35/19 would be recommended for you. Its still a taller sidewall then stock though but shouldnt cause issues. Either way 10mm wider won't make the tire look too much wider if even noticeable at all. Wheel widths themselves help give you a wider look or if you go atleast a 275 in front and a 295 in the rear.

Stock height
18x9.5 +20
18x10.5 +15

will that tire combination (255/45 and 295/35) work/look good?

Thats my future plan ATM. But I will probably drop down to a 255/40 since I do rub a little on big bumps but we'll see after i re-adjust my camber to where I want them to be and the 255/45 may be just fine. Plus a little less sidewall never hurts in cornering
