You don't need to turn it much while riding. Even with my 2" overlap, my foot only touches the tire below 5mph, and it never causes me to fall. Riding with a freewheel, you'll stop pedalling while cornering before your foot hits the wheel or your pedal will hit the ground first. It's not a problem. Watch your handlebars when you turn. Even seemingly sharp turns don't require much handlebar rotation.
