I think that you're okay. I have a 16x7 with a +37mm offset and I don't rub. Tire size might be a factor though...

+35 will put te top of the wheel pretty close to the fender. You want at least +40(+42 and up would be all the better) with a 7" wide rim and anything more than a moderate drop.

i have 17x7 with a 40mm offset with a 1.75 inch drop. I had rubbing issues in the rear and the front on bumps of anykind. After i got my fender lips cut out and rolled i have very few rubbing problems. BTW i have perfect camber in the front and slightly negative in the rear
