correct offset for my wheels?

I have searched but have not really found a definate answer. Can someone tell me what exact offset I need to run so that my tire/wheel sits flush, or even a little inside the wheel well of my 300 Touring? I will be running 22x9.5 wheels with 265/35/22 Pirelli Tires. I do not want the tires to stick out at all past the wheel well. If anything I would rather they sit just a tiny bit inside the wheel well. What offset do I need with that wheel/tire combo? BTW, I am running stock suspension and do not plan on lowering it.

Thanks!

on 9.5" wide
+18mm will sit inside
+15mm is flush

i believe (someone correct me if im wrong ;) )that the higher +offset(18mm) would bring the wheel closer inside the wheel well, while the lower+offset(+15mm) would bring it out (stick out). If your going to run a 22x9.5" rim, then your correct offset would be +18mm...
hope that helps..
You are correct, the higher the offset the closer in the wheel will sit, but I run +15 and have no issues (I actuall have to because I run 285/30/22 tires and still had to modify a bit).
