Anyone have Rota Grid-V +0 offset?

I'm interested in this rim. 15x8 or 16x8 +0 with 205/50 tires. This is going on a 97 civic hatch
Here is the rim.

Will there be brake clearance? I don't mind rolling the fenders, but I just wanna know how far will the "poke" be. Here is a drawing I did lol

Will it end up like the bottom or top one? Help please?

Re: Anyone have Rota Grid-V +0 offset?

The widest wheel a 205/50/15 or a 205/50/16 is rated for, is a 7.5" wide wheel. So this would fall under the following ruling:

From the Forum Rules and FAQ:

Quote:

10. Do not ask about "stretching" tires onto wheels that are too wide.
All such topics will be locked. Tire manufacturers determine the wheel widths onto which each model and size tire can be mounted safely, and you can find the range of these wheel widths in the specs on their websites as well as those of retailers like the Tire Rack. Mounting tires onto wheels outside this range of approved wheel widths is unsafe because it can, and often does, result in the buildup of excessive stress and heat in the tire sidewalls, which can lead to the tire "popping the bead" and/or tire failure. Make sure your tires are mounted on wheels whose widths are within the approved range.

This type of question is better suited for the Appearance forums, if anywhere. Not to mention there is a Rota thread in the Honda/Acura forum with cars sporting Grid-V's.
