They will not rub no matter how low you go. If I remember right the offset on them is a +38. You could run some spacers on the back to push out the rears some. That would look nice.

I was thinking about getting the 15x7's as well. I heard you can't have people in the back seat with these rims... is that true? and How would the wheels work out when i drop my xa a inch or so???

You will have to roll the rear fenders? What size tire are you running and are you dropped? I think no matter what there might always be a little rubbing with 002's
