T1R S-Coils
#2
yes they give the most drop for springs but track record on T1R spring for the Fit are on the grim side. not only you will blow your struts/shock in no time but you will rub like shit with your wheel setup and will throw your odometer way off... but if you really must insist on t1r spring... you need to roll your fenders, pull your fenders and rid of the fender liner. save your money and get coilovers instead.

As for the wheel set up, with any lowering spring, you will need to be doing body work on the car. Coilovers would indeed be the best bet for something like that.

i ran t1r s-coils for amost 2 years. ran stock rim/tires, ran stock rims with 195/55/16's, and ran my dr's 16x7 with a 40 offset, with 195/50/16's. i rubbed with the dr's due to the smaller offset. as for blowing struts.....i've heard of it, but it didn't happen to mine. i ran mine for 2 winters along with summers, and i have my stock struts with springs downstairs incase something happens to my coilovers. as for rubbing, you will rub. no questions. especially with that wheel setup. i'm running a 16x7 with 195/50's and a 35 offset on bc racing coilovers, which gave me almost another 2 inch lower than the springs, and i rub bad. my fenders are rolled/hammered and flared, and i still rub. lol. for the money, s-coils are great. but i'd go with coilovers.
just my 0.02.
