What I'll need to do before installing 10.5" wheels?

After a long wait, I finally received the new wheels for my Evo X.
They are 18/10.5/+15 and planning to get 265/35 tyres.

I'm already aware that I will need the rear fenders rolled and my friend just informed me that I will need to get the heat gun/hammer in the inner fender so it doesn't rub.

Is there anything that I'm forgetting that I will need to do to accommodate for such wide wheels? For example, adjust camber or coilovers

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Yea, with those wide wheels, you probably have to roll and maybe pull the rear. And the front's just mold the inner fender liner, or remove it.

I also just got my CE28's and ordered my 265/35/18 tires. But mine are 18x9.5+22. I'm getting more and more nervous about it rubbing in the rear. I probably should have went with 255's.
