Best tires for a 2009 Fit? + TPSM issue.

Hi,
I got a used Honda Fit in October. It only had winter tires. I wanna purchase brand new tires for my Fit. What do you recommend?
I also have my TPSM orange letters always ON. i think there's no sensors in the wheels. Which ones do ou recommend I buy so that I mount them the same time I change my tires.
Thanks,

base or sport ?

Looks like they make the Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 for both . These are new, but replaces the P02 which I had , good tire . I just put 2 new P03s on my Fit Sport. They seem to be just like the old ones.


Get the HUF TPMS sensors here :

Nooo!!! Get 205/50/16! They will fit your stock wheels without problem, ride, handle and look better than those skinny stock sizes. I got Continental DWS
You can thank me later.

Canadian Fit do not have TPMS... This is quite weird, unless you know your Fit is from USA...

Tirerack ships to Quebec, but you'll have shipping and custom fees to pay. You should check on Google, many online stores from Quebec (or at least Canada) can ship tires to you. Also, I already had a problem with a tire ordered from the USA, so it wasn't even worth it to return it for a new one; had to purchase a new one here. So that would at least be covered if you buy from Quebec/Canada.

Yeah buddy...I found the comment I was lookin for. Hey, I don't visit this site much and just found out the
General G-MAX AS-03's are no longer made? Or sold on TireRack? Idk, anyway I put 205/50ZR16's on a while back and was hoping to get em again but they don't sell em. Do you know if the CDWS's you have are similar or a lot different? Appreciate it. (2012 Sport)

Im rocking brand new kumho solstice ha32's. They released in 2020 but didn't hit the market much die to covid delays.
I ordered mine from canadian tire and they came in about a weekish.
They were designed for Canada apparently. They are technically a snow tire I guess but marketed as a 4 season tire(🙄 i know). The compound is harder than a winter tire though so they won't wear as fast as a winter would in our warmer months, but still wearing more than summer tire.
I am so far really happy, they handle great in rain, look good, are comfy, smooth and quiet. Only downside is they wont perform like a winter tire does in snow. I have a set of winters and summers though, these are my fall/spring wheels 🙂.

Edit - 195/60/15 is my size. Speedo actually reads perfectly accurate now, better than my stock wheel size 😅.
