Nice GE...I may be biased but I liked your old wheels better haha. Those 195's look even meatier than my 205's.

Which wheels? Lol. 195/50 is a little taller than 205/40 and does give it a fat, meaty look. Lol. Thanks

Haha. Are you?? I just thought 15s were too small. I'm starting to think 16s are too small. But one day if I ever track the fit. I think 15 would be perfect.

lol Yep check my thread when you have time. My personal belief is that a lightweight 15 inch wheel is perfect for the GE...I love the functional race car look.

Edit just realized you commented in my thread which means you've already seen it lol

Lol. Yea. Ive been there. Yours wheels seems like 15x7? The wheels look good on your car because the huge tires make up for the gap. Ive always love to see Fits that are track ready. They always have a different style.

They are 15 x 6.5jj with just a 50 sidewall...I'm going 55's very soon to fill out the gap even more (and soften up the ride a bit.)

205/50/15 should be perfect.

205/55/15 will be the closest to the stock 185/55/16, as far as total circumference goes. That way your gearing and speedo will stay as correct as possible so you don't have higher revs in final gear (cruising down the highway) and your speedo doesn't read incorrectly. Some people don't care about these things (especially if it was a track car, then who cares at all), but for me this would be the best way to go for a daily driver.

By that, you mean you put garage door weatherstripping on your side skirts?

Hmmm. I don't know man. That's kinda ghetto, but +1 for innovation. It's not horrible looking or anything. Just seems cheap. Maybe get some carbon fiber pieces fabbed up, or something?

Oh, I see. Yeah, those are better. Probably does keep some air out from under the car, especially being as low as you are. That would be pretty hilarious if you wrapped them. Get a Ferrari sticker to go with it.
