Which rims look the best on the Jazz?

[strepto]

From a tuners perspective, choosing rims for ones car is hard because we want them as light as they get. The more weight you can reduse from the total weight of the car - the better. Lighter rims in the right size can make a formidable upgrade to your little wifebeater.

Lets start off with some boring Rimjob pillowtalk. The Jazz is a cheap, economic and lazy car. It's fairly good looking, but most think its anonymous and booring. I agree - but I also know that it's easy to do something about it. Buying the lady a new set of shoes always give bang for the bucks. Due to the lack of horsepower in the Honda Jazz, the rims have to be the right size to avoid killing the performance and handling of the car. The 1.3/1.4 is shipped out with 14 " Rims, and the VTi and VTi-S comes with 15 inches.

IMHO: 15 x 7 + 50 to +60 on a Honda Jazz is perfect!

Lets have a look at the candidates:

Spoon Sports SW388



Advan RG





Volk Racing TE37




Mugen MF10L





BuddyClub P1 QF





Work Emotion CR Kai

I really like these rims:



They look similar to the Volk Racing TE37, but the center flows much better IMO. If they made a version of these rims with polished lips that would be even better.

But given the choices above, for looks I vote for the Work Emotion CR Kai.

For the track, Spoon Sports SW388.

I put WORK MEISTER S1 on my Fit.

I like deep dish.

I like the Work Emotion CR Kai. What about BBS?

[strepto]

They need to be as light as possible, and i can't go bigger then 15".

I kinda like the Volk Racing TE-37 Cup wheel with the Polished lip!






Or the Weds Sports SA-90

More than likely it's 6" wide with a 45mm offset.

[_karu_]

hm...

i believe it's using 4x100, 15x6, 45mm offset....

im currently using 195/60/15

i wonder whether it'll fit nicely into honda fit, lol.....their oem is 195/50/15...so i think there won't be any problem

60 series sidewalls on your OEM Civic will have rubbing issues with the suspension components and/or fender well.

Saw the spec on the backside of the spare tire:

OEM Honda 15" Alu VTi-S Rims
6"
+53 offset

^does that means my OEM civic wheels won't fit.........the Fit..? lol

[sr20jet]

With the 45 offset and 60 series tires, it'll rub like crazy. Not much of aftermarket wheels with offset beyond 48mm except for Subaru's, which are 5 lugs.

[_karu_]

hm....

45 offset with 50 series? in this case, 195/50/15?

[L 7 N]

I put JULIA SUPERIOR replica 17" rims on my jazz,with 195/40/17 tire,It never rub because i cut inside part of the fender which ussually rub.



In Indonesia many people do that to avoid the rubbing issues.
The most larger rims that can fit on honda jazz without wide body is 18" with 7" wide.
