Suggestions for new wheels and tires (09 Fit Sport w/ Navi)

Long story short:
I bought a 2009 Fit Sport with Navi. 2 days later, front passenger side window got smashed, all four OEM wheels stolen
(see https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...tml#post659700 for full details & pics).

I'd like to get some suggestions or alternatives to the OEM alloy wheels. I plan to get the Bridgestone Turanza EL470 for tires. I also plan to keep it at the same height as the stock (16"). And I prefer black or darker wheel colors because it goes well with my CBP and it makes the black rear drum brakes stand out less.

Thanks

There's a lot of choices out here man. All depends on your budget, time frame, and if you care about the name brand. Style of the wheel is obviously a big factor as well, but there are always similar designs by multiple companies.

I ended up ordering the 16x7 Enkei RPF1 with 205/50R-16 General Altimax HP from Tire Rack. Would this tire/wheel combo give a correct speedometer and odometer reading? I tried reading the carbibles.com article but all the info went over my head.

That is the closest diameter to stock with 16" wheels. The speedometer will be ok.
