Fitting 225 shouldn't be too much of a problem with a good pull and camber, definitely don't think you need to resort to fenders or overs as long as the wheel offset isn't over +40.
They RPF1s in 16x7 are 43 off. Keep in mind it a 225 with a 50 sidewall, its taller and wider. We will see tomorrow. I have done a good amount of searching and no one seems to have ran this size.

Here is a tire and rim calculator link that's pretty good to get an idea:

Here is a set of fenders from Thailand that look like they might work. And they are only $335 USD.

Here is the other items they have for the FIT:

If pull doesn't clear you could always pull and do Hibino fenders

Someone on here did it but I don't remember who.

Damn I forgot all about you guys having Barbara front-ends over there. So as noted, the J's fenders will not work for you. Sorry.

Yeap, no rubbing Thanks! It's got Swift Springs on, so that's the drop we got. Wasn't a huge drop but lower than it was.

With the 225/50R16 the inner fender liners will need to be removed, the car raise ~.5 in on coil overs, and roll the fender. But hey they fit...

None yet. Note the snow in the back ground. Just checking fitment. I bought these for the track, I held off mounting the 205 Feds. I will burn through the two sets quickly.
