You will have to cut tabs and do a slight fender roll, but those are some ugly wheels IMO

And yes, 225/35

would something with a bigger offset cause less trouble?

^ You can never go wrong with a higher offset.

FYI, you can read the FAQ for some suggestions on wheel fitments.

A 19x8 +45 would still look good, and require little to no work

I have to disagree on the basis of it looking stupid. For example I tend to see it a lot on Blazers when they go with a 20 inch wheel. They pick something with an offset WAY too high, and the wheel is sucked under the truck about 4 inches. It looks top heavy and ghetto.

You have to really decide what YOU want. If you are willing to trim some plastic, or bend some thin metal, your wheel fitment will look MUCH better.

What are you looking to spend per wheel without tires?

I am friends with the owner of a shop out here called Adrenaline Motorsports, and there is a set of 19x8 Tenzo-R GF7s with a +45 up there they ordered for someone, and then they backed out. I can get them to you for $750 for all 4. Here is a pic, but the lip actually isnt as big as in the pic.

I liked them, but they ran wide for their size. I sold the TSWs and the Yokos for my new setup

Finding the right rims is like finding a good pair of shoes if you aren't a sneaker head. But this site has some people that change their wheels more than some people change clothes, so take your time and find the wheel that jumps out to you and says, "wow that wheel is for me." Good luck with your search.
