Setup help with 18's

So many different setups listed. I am buying coilovers (brand not sure yet but looking and H/R or BC strongly, or bilstein), also buying 18s and have picked these.. Cosmis Racing R1's 18x8.5+35mm and 18x9.5+35mm, shop also recommending 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear.
https://www.cosmisusa.com/product/r1/


They did not mention any rolling of fenders, or need of camber kits, or spacers, bolt extensions, etc, I prefer to not have to do this stuff.
Seems like all these setups have all of that..


Do I need any of this or will the wheel/tire setup work fine with the coilovers and look good enough?. Car is my tuned up DD that I am working on improving, it is not my weekend toy however.

gonna purchase all within a week so any help is appreciated. thx

Might be OK, but I am rolled in the rear w/coilovers. U may get a little rubbing under hard cornering or weight without rolling.

I know that if I run 255/40/18's I rub under hard cornering, so it's close.
