Default Are these tires too wide????

I'm planning on getting Rota Grids 16x7, 40mm offset wheels for my car. I'm trying to figure out if mounting them with Falken Azenis Sport 215/45r16 is going to cause any rubbing. My car (2000 Civic Si) is dropped so that I have about a 1 finger gap all the way around. Will this work out? Thanks in advanced!

you'd have better luck in the civic forum. not many people here run 16s.

FWIW: my friend's '97 HX with 205/50/R15 azenis rub on his un-lowered car with 15x6.5 +40 rims. Of course, if you run a stiff-as-all-hell suspension it should work fine. My other friend runs 235's on his Street Mod hatch.
