Default Help with Fitment for 18x9 wheels on my TC2

Hi guys, total noob here so bear with me please. I am considering buying some: 18x9 Volk RE30 +35offset 5x114.3 Bolt Pattern Original Bronze Racing wheels with Brand New 245/40/18 BFGoodrich Sport Tires.

The thing is that I am not sure if they would fit on my 2011 Scion TC without rubbing or causing problems in general. My car is dropped with Tein Super Street Coilovers (not sure if that makes a difference). Can anyone tell me if they would fit? Thank You.

Also I was told that, worse comes to worse, I may have to "roll the fenders". Does anyone know what that means?

There are plenty of folks here running wider wheels with more aggressive offsets than that so you'll be fine. It also depends on how low you have the your coils set to though.

Rolling the fenders basically tucks the insides of them back further into your wheel well. It reduces the chances of them cutting into your tires when turning or hitting large bumps.

But really, there seems to be way too many "will these wheels fit" threads floating around now. If you did a quick search (on this thread and/or on google), you'd find all the answers you need and more.
