Offset on rpf1 for a lowered car

[Remmenator]

I am going to be buying a set of rpf1s in 17x9 for my car, and was wondering what offset I should buy, +35 or 45. I would like to be able to avoid spacers so I was thinking the +35, but I want to be sure I won't get rubbing with the 35 because it has been lowered on swift springs an inch. It's running 1.5 degrees camber in the front and 2.5 in the rear. I would think with the camber I would be fine, but I want to be sure. If I get +35, I was also wondering if I would need my fenders rolled. Thanks in advance! Share any picks of a similar set up if you have them please

when in doubt, always go lower offset.

depends how low you're going. +45 will tuck, but at full lock you'll probably rub. +35 will poke if not low enough. if low enough, will be cambered atleast 3 deg in the front. rears will fit with like -2--3

Our cars rarely need the fenders rolled. With the setups you're considering, you will not need the fenders rolled.

Very slight poke up front

I'm lowered on RSR Superdowns (1.4ish) springs with 17x9 +35 RPF1s and a pretty meaty 245/40/17 tire setup.
No rubbing at all.
Camber is -1.5 in front (SPC camber bolts) and -3.0 in back (natural).

Same springs, wheels size, camber. 245/45/17 tires but with stock struts the tires are VERY close to rubbing on the spring perch , but haven't rubbed yet. I must not get much sidewall deflection with Falken RT615K's because after inspection of the inside of the tire, where the tires would rub the perch, I haven't noticed even the slightest wear.
