Didn't you just buy John's rims?
I think 7" wide is just on the edge of having to modify for them to fit. If you want to be safe and not want to roll fenders and such, go with 6.5" rims. If you go over 7.5" you will definately have to modify.
PDM is located near me in Coquitlam, B.C. so shipping may be costly.

I have 15 by 7's on my Accent GL with a stock suspension setup. I have a 150 pound speaker/box in the trunk, plus the accessories that came with the car. I do get a little rubbing under hard cornering, and with my sons in the back, I found it rubs a lot more than I want. I temporarily added a spacer below the spring (a ring that sets between the spring and strut plate; it is anchored to both the strut and spring so they can't shift) in the rear to keep the rear end fron rubbing. I think if I put aftermarket springs that are stiffer, then rubbing won't be as bad.
