Also, I'm a little surprised that you got NO RUBBING in a 15x8 +36 wheel on the Fit. How about at full suspension compression? My 16x7 +40 offset wheels with 195/45 tires rub the fender lip over bumps, especially with any weight in the back of the car.
Wheel weights have to do with the offset of the wheel, they are close but the 15x7 with +25mm offset is the heaviest.

I did not load down the car with passengers but I did look from under and behind and it did look OK. Normally I do performance driving with only one person in the car so I think it will be OK, certainly the rim itself was clear so choice of tires would be a consideration.

In the rear there is relatively less room next to the shock but it's good with the +36 offset and 15x8 sized rim.

I didn't try going over any big bumps just normal streets and some turns, it did fine.
