no, to both questions....I run 245/40/18 tires....
Offset = is the distance from the inside surface of the dished center to the inside rim lip.

So how do i figure out the correct offset ? Would fender rolling help me withthis situation ? Oh and when they say fender roll is that the inside of the car or the outside painted portion ?

Try Adam at Z1 Performance. He helped me a great deal with my wheels and they turned out great!

I only have 245s and I get some rubbing in the right fender.
It all depends on the car. It's not that hard to find a place to roll you fenders. I did it myself with a metal pipe. Whatever works I guess.
