Default Wheel offset and tire size confirmation please help

I have purchased some 20x9 +25 offset wheels all around. I am thinking of running 245/35/20 on all four corners? will i have rubbing issues? the car will be lowered on bc racing coils so that should give me a lil more clearance right? The car is a year round daily driver and winters are bad here so i don't want to roll fenders and risk creating pockets for rust to form in my wheel wells. I wouldn't mind stepping up in size if i could either... what do you guys think?

245 up fronts are too big. if the bc coil spring rates are stiff enough, you can run 235 if you fenders are rolled. and for the rears, you can pretty much run any size you want.... but 235 on a 20x9 in the rear will look like trash.

im lowered on megan coilovers and my fenders were rolled. If you want to drive low then get the front rolled and run 235 or just stretch the 225
