i'm gonna buy 15'' wheels

Tyre: 195 x 50 x 15
Offset: 38

i'm wondering if sticking on a 40mm suspension kit will make the wheels rub?

Offset is wrong, they'll stick out and it will look ghey.

have et 35 on my corsa lowered 40mm, no rubbing what so ever. 195/45 tyres are a must though. 1, to maintain the rolling radius of the tyre and 2, to stop scrubbage and better looks
