Whats the long answer ? do I need to mod anything or will it just be fine? I don't want my tires or wheels to rub against the body

Long answer is my rims rub my rear mudflaps, no big deal, they'll just wear the mudflaps till they don't rub anymore, and when I turn my wheel about... say half a turn, so the tire is at it widest point in the wheel well, it rubs the splash guard slightly. Your being so much smaller, you shouldn't have an issue. Your tires are near an inch and a half smaller in diameter than mine, which is 3/4 of an inch on either side.

Oh, and I don't know about those wheels, but mine vibrated like a **** until I put hub centric rings on it, still vibrates slightly at 100, goes away at 110

Then it'd rub to no end in the front, and lowered cars are no good in winter
