Offset questions

Looking at buying a set of Rota D2s. Wondering what offset would be best. Car has rolled fender lips.

Im going 18x9 all around my offset options are +30, +35, +48

Stock offset if +50 so +48 will be the best option but if you want to close the gap between the wheel and fender go for lower offset. If you go with the +30 you might need to add more camber to make them fit which will increase inside tire wear.

The +35's should fit nicely...they might need a tiny roll of the fender depending on what size and brand of tire you are running...

Most 265-275/35/18's will fit on a 9" wheel with +35 offset
