41 offset is better for the Fit; +35 is just going to exacerbate the clearance problems.
Just looking to get a new set of tires next spring...
I'm currently rolling on Enkei RPF1 15x7 +41mm offset wheels. The rubber I am using at the moment are General Exclaim UHP 195/55R15.
I need something that has more traction.. I don't really rub anymore (i did for a bit til I did some fender work). And I am not as low as before after swapping my Tein springs for the J's/Showa suspension kit.
I was going to try 205/50R15s in the Toyo T1Rs, but I noticed that they sell these tires in a 205/45R15.
I think I may run into a bit of a rubbing issue if I go with the 205/50, but maybe, just maybe I could run the 205/45s without any problems.
I know that running the 205/45 will throw my speedo off by about 3mph slower at 65pmh. But that is ok by me.
So, given the offset of my wheels, do you guys have any input on which size to go with? 205/50 or 205/45?

Enkei Racing RPF1 Bright Silver Paint
Someone made a big stink so they pulled them off the Fit list. (note you will have to bend the fender to bumper tabs up and better to stick to 195/55 or smaller.) Looks aren't everything be safe.

....they are just not showing them as fitting the FIT, cuz they dont really.
+35 has a lot of potential to rub, doesnt give you a lot of tire or lowering choices.
AND YOU WILL PROBABLY EAT UP WHEEL BEARINGS A LOT FASTER
So Tire Rack does have them, they may not want to sell them to you (or better said, they may try to talk you out of that choice)
You will just have to insist you want them and you will take full responsibility with fitment issues.

What tires & camber are you running just out of curiousity?
You have to call them directly to order wheels that fall outside of safe tolerances for your vehicle... that way if it rubs badly when you get them you basically wave your right to return them because "they told you so".
It would be nice if there was a way to search rims directly on Tirerack instead of by "safe tolerance".
There are people out there that have no problem running insane camber and rolling fenders, as long as they understand the risks I think you should be able to buy whatever you want.
