17x7 +38 is perfect fit, it would be sick

Hey I think you should go for the these (only in this color you picked):

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...3/IMG_4499.jpg

Or go with the boost, but in gold. But I also think you might want to think about going lower I'm thinking sportline low at least :P

I should take some scans of a Japanese mag I have with a ton of Fit pics. They look good even in 18's!

I mentioned gold to her before she ever got her car but I don't think she liked the idea..... Whatever she picks for her car will be tasteful and work well.... She loves her car a lot and it is great looking..... The pictures don't do it justice.

Thanks guys...we've got a few upcoming expenses with my stepson going to sea camp--but I've got this in the back of my mind. Cody...pm me what you're thinking on price.

These were just on the other side of my street--so nothing fancy.
I'm hoping I can find a nicer location soon for some better pics and/or someone that can actually shoot pictures since I SUCK.

I'm really digging it. Interesting though, it appears the rear is lower than the front, and I've noticed that on your car in the past too, but you've reported otherwise. I'm thinking the sun is playing tricks on those shots due to the larger overhang with the rear fenders creating more of a shadow. I prefer a lower rear look, and think Adele is just about the perfect stance with the swifts and 205s. [taboo]Also, a 10mm rear spacer would look really good.[/taboo]

Yeah, it's definitely the shadows that are playing tricks on your eyes.
I measured it today...it is 2 fingers in the front and 2.5 fingers in the rear. Pretty much the same as with the 185s but the fingers are now a "tighter" fit.

But I do think it looks perfect...maybe I'm biased--It is lowered, looks really nice and I DO NOT scrape on anything which to me is worth the baller status I would have if I was lower. I also DO NOT RUB! Yay!

I think a spacer in the rear would look nice...even 5mm but I dunno.

Cool, yeah, it's pretty even looking in most of the pics. Get a 5mm bolt on spacer for kicks. Or is that kics?

Wow. Car looks f'ing awwwsum. Been awhile since I stopped in. Love the rims.

Have you thought about color matching the rear garish? I'm thinking about nixing the wiper and color matching mine.

Think I may have said this in the other post in the What did you do to your Fit today, but the car is looking really good. Simplistic, yet quite invoking.

I would say your car is awesome but since I am an atheist and unable to have feelings of fearful reverence about anything I won't be a hypocrite and say something that has no real meaning to me..... Your car is looking really great inside and out, though I have seen more of the underside of it than the rest in person.
