Actually yeah I have to take back what I said, maybe it was just the other examples I saw...They look sick, for a blue Fit i would get like a granite color. But white on white looks amazing.

no problem it would probably look better if i spent more time but i only took 10 minutes or so to quickly do it haha
but i think it looks pretty good it would defiantly be cool to see some other colors

i literally almost ordered these about 3 weeks ago, i decided not to because my buddy has a set of 15x7 +0 and he let me test fit them, of course the fitment was way off, and there would be no way to run a stretched tire because they were too skinny (unless you wanna run some 165/50/15(smart car tire), the problem was they rub on the front calipers... i was gunna do 15x8 +15 front, 15x8 +10 rear, you would need to run a small spacer in the front, im pretty sure you could get away with a 3mm spacer because they barely rub, if not a 5mm for sure. hope with imput helps, they are around 105 dollars each and to total cost would have been 520 shipped to cali.

photoshopped them on my car real quick in white and some strange orange. Dont know what color your fit is but orange will look pretty sick on a white/black/silver fit. Ignore the fact that my car is floating.....

that isnt true.. they all look deep like that, they are custom built and the inner part of the wheel (with the "D" holes punched out) are all uniform, you choose what offset you want and even with a "high'er" offset they stilll look like deep dish. the only reason i know this is because my best friend has a set.
and to run these on the run you either need to grind your caliper (which i dont recommend) or get 3mm spacers

If you can afford to buy a new/near new car..you can afford to buy wheels that don't suck.


Diamonds are weak. They're heavy. They're ugly.

the only fact you said here is that they are heavy, even then, who cares, we have fits they get bomb gas mileage as it is and they are very fast to light wheels wont really do anything. all the other stuff you said was opinion. ps i like your fit!

WTF did you just say.

It's also a FACT that they are weak. They are made for stock car racing on completely smooth surfaces, a big pothole will bend them...very easily.
