I think that both would rub.

my mustang wheels are +35mm in the front and +30 in the rear and they dont rub and my backspacing is close to that.

just get 0 or -12 to -20 offset and you will definetly be safe.

He intends to use 35 x 12.50 tires. I don't think there's any chance that those tires won't rub with ~5" backspacing.
