Default 949Racing 6ULs

Ready to order a set of 15x7.5 bronze 6UL's (all that's available right now) for my CRX and have 2 questions:

1) Will I have any issues with rubbing with the 15x7.5 with 42offset?

2) I'm being offered hubcentric rings but was told they are only necessary if I track the car which I will NOT be doing so should I pass on them?

Thanks!

1) you'll end up with 3mm less inner clearance compared to 7" wide wheels with +42 offset, so you should be good

2)GET THE RINGS, they center the wheel on the hub and take unneccessary force off the lug studs.

Rings do center the wheel on the hub, but there is no unnecessary force on the lug studs to remove. The studs do not hold the weight of the car, the friction between the wheel and the hub does.
