The tint and wheels look great. What's the wheel/tire size? There's something about this new Fit where I can't tell the wheel size by looking at it.

These really are nice loking little station wagons!
I don't like the funky wheels on the Canadian LX though.

And yes, was complimenting the owner.

edit: When I said "drop it" I meant "put on some springs and lower it."
oops.... Sorry dude; my bad. Huge knee-jerk reaction on my part.

Can I get that in writing? LOL

BTW, if you were to drop the car, does that invalidate your warranty somehow? Say, you mistakenly ran over something in the road that caused damage to the underbody? Not being a modder/tuner, what's the general appeal of lowering anyway, looks? Just curious.

I've been saying since I saw the new Fit that they look a lot like the EP3 hatch.
