Another Offset Question

I've been thumbing through page after page of 16x7 wheels and either half the pictures are gone or the wheels I want are like 18x9. Here's my dilemma. I know what wheels I want, they are typical reps, but I don't know which offset will work, if either will.

XXR 522
16x7

Color doesn't matter, since it doesn't pertain to size. I googled and found some common vehicles running these in a 16x7 +25, and then again with a +15. The +25et wheels will be like 33mm further out than my stock steelies, but should still be within the fender, am I right? I've got a 1.5" drop all around, and I'm not opposed to rolling the fender, and POSSIBLY pulling them, but I don't think it'll be an issue. I found a calculator that shows a +25 will bolt on, no spacers or anything. Is this correct? I'd like +15 simply for the concave, but I'm afraid it'll be too wide / stick out too far.

If I get a 16x7 +25et can I bolt them on, and still be truly "flush" with the fender, or still within the fender? Thanks. Sorry I'ma newb.

BTW, it's an 02 ES.
