Tires with round shoulders?

I'm going to be buying a set of 16" tires for my new wheels pretty soon and since the wheels are 40 offset, I want to do everything I can to minimize any possible rubbing issues. My Fit isn't dropped and never will be as long as I live in this town because of all the deep drainage dips on many streets.

What brands of tires are generally known to have rounded shoulders?

None really have that rounded shoulders. You may put the Monroe AirLift MA-811's on the rear to keep the backend up so avoiding rubbing. See the suspension posters,
