Rubbing Issues
I have been having issues with the tires rubbing even on a slight dip on the freeway specially when running at about 70 mph . I have a 20x9 front offset 32 tires 245/35/20 and 20x10 rear offset 35 tires 275/30/20. I also installed tanabe nf210 springs. Is it bec of the offset? What can I do to get rid of it?

Your rear offset is lower than others running 20x10. That's probably the case. Check the thread by "terrycs" regarding what wheel sizes and tires people have.
@Stew4HD Be careful when you get them rolled because some people flare the fenders when they roll it; basically ruining your car. Only get the metal inside rolled in if you know what I mean.

Double check with Vossen, but I think their recommended tire size it 275/30/20.

The front might rub during a full lock turn and going over a dip or bump. Check your front fender liners to see if there is rubbing when you fully turn the car.

The 285's on the +45 10.5" Vossens are hit or miss if I recall, but a 275 will clear. The 275's on the +35 10" Stance may only be solved by fender rolling or more camber.

Stew4HD has the +45 10.5" Vossen CV1 with 285's and jvjr9902 has the +35 10" Stance SC5 with 275's. Both are rubbing.

Keeping the Stance wheels and going back to factory springs might work, but then that defeats your goal of lowering you car.
Another solution is stretching on tires with a more narrow tread width which effectively changes the tire profile. I'm not a fan of this approach but some people like the stretched look to accommodate wider wheels or wheels that poke out more as in your situation.
If I were in your shoes, I'd try to exchange the wheels for ones with the correct offsets by explaining that they are causing your tires to rub.

Rolling inner fenders will NOT help if your front tires are only rubbing during a full turn. That would indicate the front offset is too aggressive as well for the tire size you are using.
Does your car rub at all in the back? If so, that is where fender rolling will help. But I'll say again that I'm not a fan of fender rolling as a solution.
