In the last few days of deciding on a wheel and tire.
I am upgrading from a 15 x 6 Steelie White RV wheel; to an alloy.
I am leaning towards a single machined piece like this in a 16x7; and will use a 225 width radial tire.
Just a random style example

My question to those who upgraded.
I have one inch clearance at the outside of the tire and the fenderwell of my Fiver; but have 3 inches clearence from the inside of the tire surface to the shackle.
I see these wheels in -8, -16 and -25 MM offset.
Will that not push the outside closer to the outside and cause rubbing?
Did a Zero offset allow ample clearence for you who upgraded?
Any suggestions?
