Nah the Ziex. It was the only Falken OEM size tire available. The ones I really want require a slightly fatter rim. I wanted either the Nitto Neo Gens or the Falken Azenis RT-615K but both require at least a 6.5 rim.

Ha ha Ziex 912's is what I have for the stockies. I thought you were getting new rims that's why I thought Azenis.

Nah not this time around. I spent a good chunk on those projectors so I figured I'd let it wait and just get the new tires for the stock rims.

We're closed on weekends! You can certainly email me as I have to send an email with a picture of a retrofit I'm doing for a certain FitFreak member and may be able to see it then (some point Sunday probably).

Ordered some 205/50R15 Advan A050s

for...


Much appreciated Kelso for the quick delivery. Also inserted 65-56mm hub rings into the wheels. I had a spare set laying around. Tires should be in next week, just in time for the event over at Suzuka Southern on Dec 1st.

Re-did my home depot lip. Did it differently, looks way better. Also, put on 15mm bolt-on spacers on the rear. Problem: 15mm means the oem studs still prodtrude... meaning not enough threads on the spacer can be used. Had to put nuts behind the spacer to get it to work right. So I essentially have a 25mm spacer on 16x7 +40 wheels in the back. slight amount of poke.....and rubs like crazy. Debating on keeping it, slight fender roll, or going back to how it was before. Thoughts?

Drove home with a set of 205/50/16 Continental DWS's. Nice tires! Only 1/2# heavier than the stock duns and the same diameter. It's the premium all-weather tire that should come mounted on the Fit.

Good tires KC. I'd be interested in how they handle in real snow conditions.

Didn't you just get some white Mugen wheels? How many sets of wheels do you have? (also, can't remember but I don't think you have TPMS over there either)
