S6: 20x9 wheel 46mm offset ok?
20x9 46 offset
265/35/20 tire
I've done a good amount of research and think brake clearance and inner clearance is ok. Want to confirm that and ask about potential fender rubbing from owners who are running similar setups?

looks like fitment is not an issue
you just have to be aware of the changes
you are going +1 on wheel but NOT -1 on tire
your circumference is greater which means your speedo will be off and also your ride height a bit
speedo could be learned but bigger issue may be that the difference is more then 3% and that is commonly not recommended/
they say it may lead to brake failure.
to be honest i am dealing with the same thing and will try a set up just slightly greater than 3%
ive seen people go past 5% ... and i dont think thats wise but im thinking if our vehicle can handle 3% then i =m betting they can handle just over 3%
to avoid all this drama u may want to try 265/30/20
