With these offsets would I need to do some fender mods, when I lower the car with coilovers? The front rubs when turned all the way right now, tires are 245/35 & 275/30

If the tires are already rubbing and its not lowered then yes you will need the mod. I think it looks good the way it is but I know lowering it will make it look better.

Oh wow! That was one big pothole! Sorry to hear. The wheels are repairable if you find a good place to do it. Otherwise, i'm sure someone will buy them from you. I have the exact same wheels, sizes and offsets (and color car) too so I feel for ya!
