You might want to change your name from nghtrydr23 since I see that one pic was taken in the daylight.

Seriously though, nice looking Fit.

Lol... DOH!

* J/k about the "DOH", Nghtrydr23. Just having some fun. I've overlooked similar things... way worse, as a matter of fact. *

Do you notice any negative changes in feel or even a hint of sluggishness since going to a 17" wheel?

17" wheels tend to be heavier than stock 16" wheels, of course. Considering the Fit is no speed demon to begin with, some have said unless they're extremely light, 17" and 18" wheels can cause a very slight reduction in power... or at least 'feel" like it's lost a little ummppphhh!

I wouldn't know... that's why I'm asking.

Again, your ride looks really nice.

Thanks

How much does the Buddy Club weigh??? I know the stock wheels on the fit is about 36-38 lbs.

Do you know the weight of your tires? If I could give you an advise, I'd go with Yokohama S.Drive's because they only weigh 22.6 lbs each. And they're #6 on C&D's Summer Tire comparison test

Unless you're talking about the wheels and tires, I don't think that's accurate. I read from several sources the stock Fit wheels (without tires) weigh in around 17 lbs. each.

Of course, I read this... I didn't weigh them personally. Like I said, that's several sources.

Beautiful car man. Love the BC's. Makes me wish I had gone bigger with my P1's.

Smoked RS tails would look badass on your car and would compliment the CF grille and the wheel color.


Keep up the good work.
