Wanted to mention-

Just for fun I also did a test fitment of-
15x8 rims +36mm offset with 225/50-15 tires and that worked too, front and back no rubbing. It's taller than stock as well and very wide but OK.
205/50-15 and 225/45-15 would also work.

The rims are 949racing.com 6UL that usually fit Miatas and MINIs.
Comes in 15x7, 15x7.5 and 15x8 that would work for the Fit.

15x8 weighs about 13 lbs each.

Probably 205/50-15 would give the lightest wheel tire combo while
225/45-15 the best fit for a 15" wheel up to 8" wide and more contact patch.

Also did a fitment for-
17x7 rim +42mm offset
205/45-17 worked OK no rubbing
205/40-17 would be better, 215/40-17 probably would work as well.
