That's going to vary per person, and it is difficult to find just the right position. I found that having it slanted back a bit further than most seats with the seat as low as it can go was perfect for me.
Once you find a decent position try driving around a bit, if it's right you'll start to notice how right it feels after a bit even if you don't notice it right away.

I have mine configured the same way.

I started with:

- going as low as it could go
- move it far enough back that my left foot is at a comfortable position when the clutch is fully depressed.

Then over time, I went from a straight vertical seating position and moved the seatback further reclined until I found a position that worked with my steering hand and back comfort.

When it comes to how close you sit when you extend your arm the bottom of your wrist should be aligned with the top of the steering wheel. Just base it off that foundation.
