These came with the wheels I got and seem ok but I could find little info about them and their quality or longevity. Or how they work on the Fit.

Here's the link to the official product page:

HU901 - UHP | Hemisphere

Looks like it has a 320 treadwear rating, which won't win you any competitions. They look to me like they'll just be a slightly stickier All Season tire. Nothing special really. In a 205 width on the stock rims, they'll probably be just a tiny bit less responsive. But this is just in my opinion.

Ya I just came across that page too ..at least they have an AA rating for traction,temp. I paid $400 for wheels with tires on them and mounted on car so probably a decent deal ..I figured tires with near new tread are still worth $200 and wheels $300 or so ..I think I still came out ahead ..I hope. I am selling my factory 2011 Sport rims for $300 to recoup some $.
