The rubbing looks nasty I don't know if a camber adjustment will help fitment either as the wheel seems just too wide.

That stretch is retarded. As is allowing your car to rub like that. As is running staggered wheels on a FWD car. I hope nobody is around you when you blow out a sidewall at speed.

Economy cars shouldn't look like that in my opinion lol. i can understand if you put it on a lexus or a more luxurious car like that. Even then i think it looks silly But to each his own! I like the wheels though Very nice

So what tire was getting chewed up? In the 5th photo the rear has the 205 and you later stated you pulled for a 205 width. In the chewed up photos it still looks pretty much the same stretch (which I have no understanding why anyone would want that).

Why did you opt for a 10" wheel in the rear anyways? Maybe if you stuck with the 8.5" like up front (still way to much width for the Fit, IMO) it would of been better off.

Good luck with this.
