Default 4" centermount bathroom faucet and clearance

i bought a wall mount sink:

its has 2 and 7/8 iches from the center of the mounting holes to the
wall.

i'm concerned about the room for the handles to turn and for me to fit
my fat hand in between the wall and handle.

here are the handles i'm looking at:

this has a base width of 2 and 3/32nds inches.

according to my math that means i have 1 and 53/64ths from the bottom
base of the faucet to the wall.

i've looked all over but can't find anything about the recommended
clearance for these handles or how far they turn in degrees. 90 degrees
would be ideal. does anyone know if there is trade term for this, or a
standard?

much thanks.

btw, from my online search i like price pfister for simple classic
designs. don't know about how they ware.
