Front Wheels Hitting Fender's Front Shield

I was just just thinking about this earlier today, so I'll hijack this thread instead of starting a new one. My current front wheel setup is 19x9.5 +22 with 5mm spacer (+17 net offset), 255/35/19 tire, lowered on coilovers with top of tire barely tucking under fender, within OEM camber settings. My question is, with this tire size and stance, about how far can I push the wheel out before I run into issues with the tire hitting the fender liner and/or fender? I.e. could I add another 5mm of spacer thickness (+12 net offset) without issues?

if it's toward the front, mark where wheel /tire is hitting, remove said wheel, with heatgun, heat up plastic fenderliner in place and while not too hot (prior to melting) use baseball bat or basketball to push in and create semi-sphere void where the tire will no longer rub.
if it's rubbing on the inside firewall (metal) your options are a) either hammer it out (not really recommended) or b) buck up kiddo and deal with it or c) get new setup
