I have thought about them, but i like the axis ones more however i dont think i wanna pay that much for taillights haha, but i have thought about it, i just find the Depo ones look to lightly tinted in my opinion.

The more I see them the more I like those LX rims. Anyone ever weigh them?

I'd love a set of those

Haha yeah at first i did not like them at all on the car, but the more i look at them they have defiantly grown on me a lot!
I have always wondered the weight too, they feel pretty light though, but then again they are 15" wheels.

I love the look of stock bodied base dumped like that. If I didn't have two kids to haul around and road tripping all over the western seaboard i'd do the same thing.

I love my fit
yes its not very road trip friendly at the moment haha, but luckily it doesnt take to much time to adjust the suspension and ride at normal heights and stiffness.

Yup these are the factory wheels for the middle step base model here in Canada, the base base has hubcaps, then there is mine with the actual dish wheels (Civic hybrid wheels), and then the sport model which is the same as the other USDM ones

The car looks real nice on those rims even without the caps. I vaguely remember some LX owners posting pics of their cars.

I always liked that style, they kind of remind me of my old Audi's rims




The civic rims are 5 lug.



We got to get a Canadian exchange program going on like Danny's tail light program .

How much do the Fit LX rims go for in Canada?

From the quick search I did, the prices I found were up there. But for a reasonable price I'll take the 6 hr drive up to Montreal

Don't go out of your way, but the next time you go for service, check the price if you can, and let us know. That would be appreciated.

+reps, the car really goes well with those rims.
