Default Wheels/Offset Question for EG w/ 4x114.3 Suspension

searched and couldnt find the answer to my question...

Im looking for new wheels and am thinking about 15"-16" Volk TE37s. With the current 4x114.3 suspension setup, which offset should i go with? 33/35/42/43?? My ride height is really low but if i go 16 ill go with a 195/45/16 tire and raise my car up. If i go 15's ill go 195/50/15 and see if it rubs.

Im running on the 15" 96-Spec ITR wheels right now on 195/50/15 and i rub when i turn my wheel all the way to the right. I believe im hitting something under the fender-well...Looks like a sheet of metal. Ill be shaving my fenders before i get the wheels, but i just want to know what type of offset ill need so i dont rub against the calipers and fenders

Any help would be great

Well, the 4x114.3 is the same as the GSR brakes, so the recommended offset is +42. All of those offsets look good, +33 might be too extreme.
