Default anybody running 16x7" 43 offset wheels on 5th gen prelude?

i'm looking to get new wheels in 16s, since i love riding dumped. and, i checked this thread: http://www.socalprelude.com/viewtopic.php?t=13926 and it says that i might rub a little bit on 16x7" with a +43 offset. has anyone ever gone through rubbing issues with that kind of offset? the wheels i'm getting also come in 17x7.5" +48 offset, and i just might have to get 17s if i'm going to rubbing with 16s. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

I wouldn't trust anything on a web page that erroneously claims that wider tires have a larger contact patch.

As long as the offset is correct, stick with the 205/50-16 stock tire size and you should be fine.
