Anyone had experience with Rage rims, specifically Rage Raven rims. I'm looking to put winter wheels on my 09 Sport Fit. Discount Tire doesn't seem to have any/many tires(?) but the Rage Raven Rim, 15 x 6.5 4-100/114.40S came up for the base Fit (minus one for snow tires) at $58 per rim for about $300 total. Still need TPMS sensors (Bernardi etc. $30 ea plus shipping), tires (Tires Plus ($450 tax and installation) or Tire Rack ($71 each tire Blizzak WS60)), mounting and balancing, total about $890?? plus hauling everything around town aaaagh...

Maybe everything from Tire Rack (approx $756+156 shipping) would be easier :-(

Could save $40 (total with possible closer/cheaper shipping) with General Altimax Arctic or Michelin X-Ice Xi2. The Blizzaks are better on ice according to the reviews.

 

you don't need the TPMS in your snow tires/wheels...every time you change tires/wheels, you will have to visit your local Honda delaler to get them programed!

Make sure the wheels are hub-centric...that means that the wheels are held in place by the machined hole in the center of the wheel. If not, then the wheel bolts will have to hold the wheel centered...this is a big no, no...don't do it! If it does not say hub-centric, stay away from them.

 

Yeah, I'm still not sure about the TPMS. I'm pretty careful about checking tire pressure, although OK <> CO means some significant altitude/pressure changes.

Hub-centric. Tire Rack wheels usually comes with the necessary rings so that's another tick in their column.

Thanks for the feedback.
