2012 Fit/autocross wheel ?

Going to auto-x the new car. Stock ride height. Wanting to use RPF1's. With the off-set choices offered, will 205's rub using 16" wheels? Any comments on using 15's up front?

Just get a set of 15x7s all around with some sticky tires and you'll be set.

It's hard to beat the RPF1s.. I am on 16X6 1/2" Kosei K1 TS wheels with Goodyear all weather 205 50 16"s but when winter is over I'll be back on RPF1s with some sticky rubber on them... I can't get over how much better the car steers and rides with 45mm offset and 1/2" narrower rims opposed to 41mm and 7".. The 3.3 lbs extra weight per wheel over the 15x 7" RPF1s isn't as noticeable as I expected, I guess due to the shorter sidewall...
