Default Anyone running 30p offset on EF?

Hi, im going to buy a set of wedsport rims that are 14x6.5 with 30p offset.

Will these fit my ef fine without rubbing?

Oh, also, what tires would you reccomend?

195/60/14?

or something a little more low profile? do they make a 50 or 55?

Would probably throw out the speedo if i fitted lower profile anyway..

Is there anything I can do to stop them rubbing?

They should rub like crazy. I had 38mm offset and they rubbed a quite a bit. It was a major pain in the ***.

As far as 14" tires go, there's 185/55s, but I assume it would be about the exact same height.

I'm running like 32 or so offset with 205/50/15, and I only rub in very extreme cornering. Stiff suspension helps in this department though.
