bolt pattern

anyone know the bolt pattern off '09 fit sport? i know it's 4-lug... i've got some 17's that are 4 lug universal(fit my accord, and fit mid 90's civic).

my plan was when i get my fit, to throw the 17's on it instead of the 16's it comes with... should be more than enough room in there for them at stock height.. maybe lower if i need to. just want to verify the bolt pattern.

also.. anyone know if K&N has intake system (short) for new fit out yet?

well if you have a universal 4 lug... and our car is 4 bolt, what does it matter?

the tires you use may be the problem though... if it came from an accord.

Bolt patten is 4x100mm. The same as earlier Civics.

we'd get new tires.. the ones we have now were only to be used this summer (buddy owns a shop and gave them to us free.. we've been rallying the hell out of them testing out the new suspension on my accord)

i just know that some vehicles come with weird bolt patterns sometimes that universal 4-lug patterns don't fit which is why I was asking :-)

i remember that someone told me universal 4 lug rims have a downside to them, is that true?

also, are the bolt pattern and offset the same from 07 to 09?

Only downside that i know about is that more people would possibly steal them since they would fit on both 4x100 and 4x114.3?

The problem with the '09 Fit is that they require a higher offset wheel than the previous model and older Civics and stuff. So if your 17's are pretty wide 7-8" and in the 35 offset range then they will stick out too far.

The '09 Fits are 4x100. If its universal there should be holes for the 4x100 and 4x114.3.

Whats the offset on the rims?

Bolt patterns are the same, but I think the offsets on the '09 might be different.
