Thanks for your input though.
Go with +45 and 195/45/17 and you shouldn't have any problems. Worst case you might have to roll the front fenders just a tad bit.

The sport optional grill was the first 'mod' I bought for the Fit. Once I saw it, I HAD to have it. It looks a million times better than the stock, honeycomb style grill.

Most people don't even notice it, but once they do, they love it.

I was thinking of paitning it to match the rest of the car, but we'll see

Love the teal, as always.
