that spec will rub but it's a small price to pay for how sick it'll look when the wheels are flush with your fenders

73.1 mm wheel bore is in reference to the diameter of the center bore of the rim -- IIRC the Fit's hub bore is 56.1mm. you're going to need a set of hub rings (hubcentric ring adapters) to help mount the wheels correctly; otherwise, you'll get wheel vibrations on the freeway and risk damaging the hub bearings.


EDIT
to minimize the rubbing i would get 195/45/16 tires and add a bit of camber, maybe -1.5 or -2. i rub on 15x7 +40 with 205/50/15 tires -- BUT i'm pretty low, tucking tire on the front and a little bit in the rear and i've only got -1.2 camber.

boo..
jk! good idea, the OEM dunlops are poo.

if you still want that flush look you might consider adding a spacer. 5mm in the front and 8mm in the rear should be enough. i put my sport wheels on my mom's eg with that same spacer width and it looks really good IMO.
