I have my tires mounted on new 15' Honda rims I got from dealer.

My new snows are 185/65r15. They are BFG winter-slalom.

I have not seen them mounted yet. I dropped off the rims at tire dealer late Sept and they are storing them for me. Soon time to put them on.

Your Honda Fit has a 4 X 100 bolt pattern.

The other Honda size is 5 X 114.3...there is no 4 X 114.3 bolt pattern.

Right now I have nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi tires in 195/55R15 on my car for my snow shoes but I will be replacing them with the nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi but in 205/50R16 once these wear out. At the rate they are wearing, it looks like I will be using them for another two seasons. I've already used them for two seasons. I highly recommend these tires.

185/65R15 isn't the same circumference as 185/55 R16. It's larger. 175/65R15 is closer and is the stock size on the base.

Narrow tires work best for winter. I'm running 175/65R15 Bridgestone Blizzak WS60 on Honda 15x5.5" steelies.

The correct bolt pattern is 4x100mm.
