Wheel Fitment

I've been digging for the past 2 days and haven't found any definitive information. I have a 2009 Mini Cooper S. The wheel I really want comes in a 16x8 et15. Will I run in to any rubbing issues? Will there be any negative camber using this setup? The manufacturer says no, but I have had other people say yes. What do you all think? Forgive my ignorance here, I don't know much about wheel fitments.

Thanks,
Luke

The wheel will fit with no rubbing, maybe only a little at the very extreme ends of the steering lock depending how wide you go with tires..

Camber is not affected by putting on new wheels, only by changing suspension geometry.
