17X7 40 offset wheel on an XA

Need to replace original Enkei's that are beat up. Has anyone had any rubbing problems with a wheel size of 17X7 with a 40 offset running a 205/40/17? I'd like to put on Konig Further wheels, but I'm concerned about the offset.

I have 205 40 17. No rubbing here. I don't know what my offset is though...

MB Drift wheels... from discounttire.com

Why not a 205 45 17? They are actually cheaper than 40's and they will fill out your wheel well better.

My XA is a rs 1.0 came with 205/40/17's with Enkei's from the factory. Just keeping the same size as original. I got over 68K out of the tires, so I got my money's worth. Your MB Drifter appear to have a 40 offset too, so that's good news.
