I drive a 2008 Fit
I am wanting to put 15" rims on the car. I have stock steel R14 with 175 for width, (the car has no TPMS I am in Canada we did not get that).

I want to get the rims for looks and a bit better handling etc..., But I do not want a harsh ride, this is my everyday car... so I am choosing to stay with 15" if I can.

I eventually think I might lower the car an inch or 2.

the part that is getting me confused is offset and such. Just looking for a good 15" rim and tire combo that I will not have any issues with.

I was wanting the HFP 16" but I would be buying them online with no tires and at 16" I have heard it would have a harsh ride, so I thought 15 would be good....

if anyone can help that would be great.

Do not buy their hub rings, our fits use 56.1mm bore like most smaller hondas. You can get good quality hub rings on ebay for under $30

 

lol Konigs.

OP, if you want guaranteed freedom from rubbing, get 15x6 +40 with 195/55 (or 195/50 if lowered) tires.

OR

Get used Enkei RPF1 in 15x7 +35
Get 195/55/15 tires.
Don't lower your car, just enjoy improved driving experience for cheaps.

 

i rock a set of bronze rota grids in 15x6.5 wrapped in yokohama s.drive (195-50R-15) but my car is lowered. 15x7 rubbed a little bit the 6.5's i haven't had any issues with. i only run them in the summer months.

 

My ultimate choice, and only super ligthweight choice under $1000 new.

cannot beat 9.2 pounds!!
