The rims are xxr521 16x8 +20 offset.
tires are 205/45/16. I eventually changed them to 195/45/16 for better fitment

Hey brotha, which set up did you like best? Is the 195 too much of a stretch? Do you have any pics? I just picked up a Milano Red 2012 Fit and im thinking of getting the CCW reps that XXR just came out with. Im debating on what tire set up to choose from. Thanks man

195s were a perfect combo of tire and rim. I was thinking about getting the ccw reps as well before i got the Work emotions. Decided to go with the real wheels instead lol. I like the 17s on my car but i need a lower drop to compensate for the extra inch i picked up from going from 16 to 17.

LOL yeah I would perfer to go with the real things as well those things look damn good!!! I commute a lot so im just reluctant to stretch since i had a bad experience with my s2k, traded up to a fit (and yes it is and upgrade) lol, but i stretched a 225 on a 10' unfortunately on the freeway my tire decided to slip to one side, scariest thing ive ever experienced. do you have any pics of the 195's, ive seen it on miatas and it gives the tire a round look, it looks kinda chunty if you ask me lol. but i could be wrong.

Thanks for all your help

also i forgot to mention man, i dont intend to lower the car, possibly a little how you have your xxr set up but most likely i wont, i dont know if that affects your decision on the 205 or do you still feel the 195 would be better.

i lowered it 2 inches. i still have the springs if u wanna buy em. i prefer the 195s over the 205s. made for a cleaner look. the 205s had a FAT look to it. plus... the 195s arent much of a stretch as you would think.

i had a slight rub with the 205's when i had a packed car... but that was it. with the 195's the rub was eliminated. the ride was actually pretty close to stock (slightly stiffer.. but not by much). i got them for $250 but ill sell em to you for $120 since i have no need for them anymore. had them on for a yr only
