Buddy Club in white with VBP!

Well here's my baby all decked out! Buddy Club P1 Racing SF in white. 17x7 +42 wrapped with BFG G-Force KDW's 205/40 17's.

Boy do they stick! A little noisy but sticks like glue. Almost done with my mods. Waiting on prototype motor mounts from innovative and then a 5lb JR SC.

Enjoy.

no i dont think so. I like to put it on ramps to work on it and i live off road so i don't think it would work. Hopefully someone will come out with upgraded shocks/struts soon for a stiffer ride with the same height.

I'm not a big fan of 17" rims on a Fit, but the white really does look sharp. I was thinking of doing white rims myself on my VPB and seeing yours sealed the deal I'd say. Looking good!

I ordered the same wheels for my VBP fit. But, I got them in a 15x6.5 with a +40 offset. I also got them in flat black. I purchased some BFGoodrich g force sports for them as well. I am looking to get some new lugs but don't know what I want yet. Was thinking of either blue or black. Can anyone suggest a good light weight lugnut that doesn't cost a fortune? As for your fit with the white buddy clubs, it looks great. Although I would have went with a 16 at most. I think 17's look to disproportioned on the car. But they are very nice wheels. I can't wait to get mine. Should be next week some time. I will post pics as soon as I install them.

Look forward to seeing the pics. I had the HFP 16's for a while and they were great. Like these much better. I think 18's would be on the big side for the fit but until you see it in person you never know.

Your ride is definetly looking dope! The white wheels look fantastic on the VBP. Also would like to get that nice T1R intake. It looks great under the hood. I'm really happy to see what these wheels look like on a fit. Great purchase for your ride. The only reason I want the 15's is for the weight factor. I guess 17's don't really look that bad at all. I just wanted to free up as much weight as I can on this car but still look good at the same time. As soon as I get mine I will post pics! Again, your ride is looking sweet. Keep up the good work!

Did you get a weight on the 15's? Probably pretty damn light.

The 17's i have are only 15lbs each. That's 2+ pounds lighter than the 16" HFP's i had.

Hope to see ya at the meet. Maybe you'll have an intake sooner than you think.

slightly in the rear end only when sudden grade changes in the road but not often. I am going to try and shave down the lip in the back and see if that helps.

The 15inch wheels weigh in at 12lbs a piece. Pretty light but could be a little lighter. But, a great weight for the price. I know the spoon wheels in the 15inch size weigh in at 8.9lbs. Now thats light! Anyway what brand intake is going to be given away at the meet. I should have my new rims and tires on before the meet if I show up. Im located west of philly so its kind of a hike to long island. But, never been there before and would be up for a nice little drive.

Yeah i'm in upstate NY so it's a hike for me too. I am not sure of the brand of the intake. It is a short ram my friend has that he is not using anymore.

Edit: That's pretty light for a 15inch cast wheel. Probably 3-4 puonds lighter than the stock 15. I saw on tirerack that the gram lights were around the same weight as the 17's i have but are twice as expensive. I liked the Motegi traklights (weighed in at 11lbs for a 17" rim) but they only had them in anthracite (which i had already on my HFP's) and i wanted white.
