Did you have any rubbing issues with that little piece of metal under the rear fenders? How did you get rid of it?

No problems at all even turning with the exception of speed bumps.

Not a lot but no matter what wheels unless OEM or 19" is going to be a difference. Even 19" it all depends on specifications.
