stock sport tire rubbing!
So my fit is lowered and rear spaced out. It is rubbing alot in the rear and will probably need new tires before they blow. Is there any recommendation for stock sport rim with a tire with less bulge on the sidewall?
The rear is only rubbing on one side and it don't think I can roll the fender anymore.

^^ That and a few more questions...
What year/chassis generation Fit do you have?
What is your wheel's width and offset in addition to the spacer size you used if it isn't the stock Sport wheel?
What did you lower with? Lowering springs, coil overs, cut springs etc.
Are your fenders already rolled?

stock sport wheels are wat 6" width? you're going to need to buy something with 165 or 175 width to have a slight stretch i think. honestly i think it will look pretty wired being super narrow like that and pushed out.
i suggest you get 16x7 wheels and get maybe 185 tires mounted.

Still wondering about the thickness of your spacers...
Edited to add: I see that you intend to continue to run with a damaged tire until it "starts leaking air". With that general attitude and the fact that you're modding your car without knowing the outcome, I think it's unsafe and unfair for the other drivers on the road around you. Take your car to a reputable service place and get them to put it back to a safe condition.

^^ agreed
if you want to hella flush your car, your doing it wrong
if you plan on putting on spacers to your stock wheels and trying to get it not to rub... i sugguest you change wheels completely or really just set your coil overs to not be that low...
but then again without picks hard to say whats going on
