On my gen 3 with 2" lift and 235/75/15 the best option to "clear" the original and unmodified fenders is to use the original wheel offset. I use the original alloys. there will be rubbing.
I would think that with your tire size it would be the same.

as soon as i posted this question i realised that there arent many tyres in the size i mentioned. see i would like to go 235s but from my understanding the stock wheels arent wide enough for the 235s, have you had any problems with the stock alloys?

Stock rims are fine for 235 tyres.

225/75R15 need minimum 6" rim and 235/R15 need minimum 6.5" rim.

There's no hard and fast rule on this, it's down to the manufacturer of the tyre in question to stipulate the minimum and maximum wheel size for each size and model of tyre they provide. They are supposed to publish this information under law but it's invariably very well hidden.
