18x9.5 + 255/35/18+20mm offest + stock suspesion =?
Is it gonna rub, Will have have to roll fenders?????
Its because I wanna buy the Rota P45R the 20mm offset will give me more room on the Brembo, but wont this mean they'll be sticking out more. Help guys.

This is a 17x9 +24 with a 255 Kumho Victoracer (ie. wider than a normal 255 street tire). This is on stock suspension with stock bodywork. You figure your setup will stick out alittle less than a half inch more than my car pictured, on the outboard side. I think your big issue will be clearing the bigass stock spring and perch.
your mods will be alot more involved that rolling the fenders...you'll be essentially reshaping the rear ones
you need an offset in the high 20's to not have to totally reinvent the wheel, and you'll likely need larger front fenders and in all liklihood, a switch to coilovers

In a word yes (they will rub).
Most manufacturers recommend 8.5" width with around +30 or +34 offset on 235's. I don't think you're going to rub the struts since your wheels will extend inwards just a little less than the 8.5" +34. What you're going to have to worry about is that you'll stick outwards nearly an inch (0.89") out from the fenders compared to a +30. {I run +30's and my wheels are pretty much flush with the stock fenders}.
I think you should look for posts by another gentleman on this forum who runs 18x9.5 +40 enkei nto3s with a 10mm spacer in front, no spacer in back. This makes his front effectively a +30. I believe he has done pretty extensive work on the fenders. If you do a search on the bold text, I think you should find some more info.
