Default Rota torque fitment question

Ok so I was deciding on what wheels I wanted and I've decided to go with rota torques. 17x9 30 offset rear and 17x8 35 offset front with the tire size 215/45 17 and 245/40 17. I'm lowered ~ 1-1.5" it's on eibach springs right now I will have my fenders rolled and bumper tab relocated. My question is this. How much camber will I need and when I see things like -3 degrees is that each wheel or the total of both sides? Thanks for any info!!

Wasn't asking for wheel opinions thanks. I don't have any issue with them nor does anyone I know that has had them or currently has them.

They make a 17x7.5 +48 and 17x8 +48. You'll be able to run stock sized tires at non-retarded alignment settings and fit well without mauling your fenders.

Rota torques

I saw this and it's what made me want them. I don't want to run only 8" rear bc I want the concave look and that doesnt start until 9" wide with a 30 offset

Not your car not your wheels. This is a fitment question not asking for opinions on rotas. I've heard all the horror stories and I really don't care. I've never had any issues with them and neither has any I know that has had them or still has them. It's good enough for me everyone has their own opinion but guess what I wasn't asking for it about the wheel choice

how much, about -3.5 should be about right. if you rolled and pull that might help decrease it.
