Default 2009 Honda Fit 16's rub on EK civic?

Hey I'm about to pickup some 09 Fit rims (16's with 53mm offset I believe) & was wondering if anyone knows if they will rub while turning on a 2000 Civic coupe stock suspension. I believe the tires are factory 185/55/16's
Thanks

your ok, my 08 fit stock rims have a offset of 55, so i'm sure the 09 is close to that area. Either way, nothing to worry about

The Fit with the 16" accessory wheels come with a P205/45R16, the 5dr Sport had 15" stock with a 195/55R15.
