Default Low Offset Wheels on an EF

Hey guys,
My EF Hatch is in paint and im on the hunt for a nice set of wheels. Just wondering, what the lowest offset I can run on both a 15x7 and/or 15x8 wheel is without having to PULL/FLARE my fenders. Fenders will be ROLLED prior to paint.
I was thinking about a set of rims that were 15x7 +10 offset, would I have to flare or pull my fenders to have these sit nice? I was told that 15x7 +25 offset would be the lowest I can go, so I just want to double check and get some tips/advice/any useful information regarding low offset wheels on an EF
Thanks

Hi to a fellow ontarian ef owner! i will be running x7 +10 on mine, youll have to do a fender roll in the rear, pull the front splash guards out (or fab them up a bit to clear) and be pretty slammed to make them fit nicely. But it will look super nice when the work is done!

I've had 15x8 15 offest wheels on my rex with rolled fenders. No problems. And u should be good with 15x7 10-15 offset.

One other variable is the tire size as well.. 15x7 is plenty wide.
