I run Hankook H727's 205/55/16 and love them. I've had them for about a week. It does offset your MPH a bit so just make sure not to speed if you do choose to go that route. I chose to go with the 205/55 size due to the fact that my Fit is an every day driver and I am looking for a smoother ride than what the stock dunlops can offer. I've had no clearance issues at all, no rubbing of any kind either. I've had quite a bit of weight in the car and zero issues. I have not seen a huge decrease in MPG either - which is nice. I have my PSI @ 40 on all 4 tires. I have pictures in a thread I created a few days ago if you want to check them out.

Good luck.

I'm aware of the percentage difference and increase...will I encounter any clearance issues? No off-road driving, just regualr payment. Any other issues to consider? Any alternate sizes? I don't want to go with 205/50-16's because that's a lower profile tire. Thanks
