Default Focus wheels on a Fiesta?

Two of the rims on my Fiesta WQ 2005 are dented. It is pretty hard to get wheels for these as they are pretty much the first thing to disappear when a Fiesta comes up for wrecking. The steelies are apparently almost always bent in some way as well making them difficult or impossible to balance.

I have found some Ford Focus 4x108 PCD 15x6 alloys, but they have an offset of 52 which is 4mm positive of the default (I could be wrong). If I use 195/50/R15 tyres am I likely to have any issues with rubbing on the wheel well?

I doubt it, from everything I've read you need to have +20mm wider plus 17s (maybe 16s but I don't think so) to rub.

I'm amazed at how light on the ground wheels for the fiesta are!
