That guy has the same wheels Im getting same size tires Im getting with an extreme drop and said he only has VERY little rubbing only while autox-ing the car at its limit. Im only planning on a mild drop so I should be fine.
A few corrections:
1) Here is a current picture of my car:

(The old picture with the white wheels was of my old Kosei K1s 16x7.5 +22)
2) I had to trim my rear fender (inside) by about 3/4 so that it wont rub.
3) I wouldnt call my drop extreme but it is about 1.5. The springs Im using (5Zigen R-rate) are *very* stiff (about 30-40% stiffer than the Eibach Prokits) and work very well for me...
4) When I said rubbing I was actually refering to the front wheels. Under extreme cornering at the track (I dont autocross at all) the front tires would rub the fender inner lining when cornering. The rears dont have a problem at all but then again the rears have the fender trimmed....
If anyone has any Qs feel free to email me at mav1178@earthlink.net. I came on here after a friend of mine put it to my attention that my car was being referenced. Thanks.
