    Try to take a photo of the rear tire from the same overhead angle. I disagree with the other posters, I DO NOT think the fronts are "too wide" - you usually don't run into fender rubbing problems there, but they will tend to happen at the rear fender if you use wheels with the wrong offset.

    What's the offset on these wheels? +45mm is an idiot-proof offset for the Jazz and City and that will let you get away with using such 7"/7.5"-wide wheels without rear fender rubbing or the need to roll the rear fenders. I ran 16x7 +45 wheels for two years, never rubbed, no rolling of rear fenders needed.

    For what it's worth, I now run 15x6.5 wheels with +45mm offset, but had to use a 5mm spacer up front for the wheels to clear my brake calipers. Using a spacer effectively reduces your offset, and my front tires are just as pushed out of the front fenders as these 18s are. No rubbing observed, and I race the car around Clark.
