18x9 +35 on 07 WRX

Hey so I'm looking to pick up a set of 18x9 +35 Rota G-Forces for my WRX, I'm already running BC coils and my question Is how bad will I rub If any with out having my fenders rolled or pulled? Or do I absolutely have to have them rolled and pulled to run these wheels?
I searched around on google but got kind of mixed results hoping to find someone running the same size wheel with the same offset.

Tires will be 235/40/18

really depends on how low you want to go. Im running 225/40/18 on mine. front fenders cut and rears pulled with -1.5 camber all around with no rubbing issues.

I can't answer your question, but they are BEAUTIFUL wheels...Maybe this guy can tell you if he has problems, although I'm not sure how much difference your different setups make.

I am running the same wheel and tire setup with RCE yellows and tokico D-spec dampers and stock camber. I had to roll and slightly pull the rear fenders to deal with scraping issues, but the front fenders have no issues. Sticrusin06 is right tho, it depends on how low you want to go. good luck
