replied in the other thread as well, looks really good. The sportlines will settle some more as well. Mine are about 1/2" from tucking tire in the front now.

Normally...I don't care for three spoke wheels. But those Advans look uber sweet on your ride. Well done!!!

Yeah, looking at the Advan catalog you can get these wheels in any number of custom offsets and 6 different colors. You scored big time bro The red looks sweet on your BBP. I'm leaning towards the Advan RZ's in bronze for my SS. Won't happen until next year...if it happens at all. $440.00 a rim plus tires is a tough pill to swallow. I think I'd have to commit Hari-Kari if I knicked a curb

Now that I've seen a couple of Fits on Sportlines...it really doesn't look lower than my Pro Kit, especially at the nose. The rear looks lower but the Sportlines I would think would have a totally dumped appearance and they don't seem to...

Side views would suggest maybe 1/2" from top of tire to top of fender well...Your front end looks just like mine

thanks man advan RZ's are siiick too waiting is all good at the end you will get the rims that u always wanted and proud of having
and i get scared every time i parallel park i end up parking 2 feet from the curb i know its a bit extreme but i rather have that than mess my lip up

yea sportlines doesnt seem that dumped im just hoping that it drops more when the springs settle in

Forget about the wheels, I can't get past the color. Man I wanted a blackberry pearl so badly and there were none with the options I wanted. It is absolutely the best color in the Fit lineup I think. The crystal black pearl is tight too. I can't look at threads like this anymore or I'll have buyers remorse.

I know why it doesn't look dumped 205/40/17's...2 inches smaller in diameter that the stock 185/65/16's. If you get bored one day throw the stockers back on there and post some pics

Have you had any rubbing thus far?
