Rota Circuit 8 centre bore

Does anyone have the official centre bore on the G2 Fit? I've seen on Google that it's some where around 57.x mm?

Better yet, will these wheels "fit"?
Rota Circuit 8
- 15x6.5
- Offset 38
- Centre bore size 62.1mm

Trying to prep it up for autox.

Hub size for the fit is 56.1mm you will need hubcentric rings to fit those perfectly on the fit's hub or you can install without them but you run the risk of not being prefectly centered which will cause issues at higher speeds.

Also if your prepping for auto-x i think you may want to go with a stronger wheel as rota's are mostly made as "streetable" replicas for more popular brands.

Grassroots Motorsports Magazine used Rota Circuit 8 wheels on their track Miata - just as one of many examples. That car underwent more stress than an autocrossed Fit is ever going to. Plenty of people AutoX with Rota wheels.

Grassroots Motorsports Magazine

BTW - for a 2nd Generation (GE8) Fit, I'd recommend 45mm offset over the 38mm... and the Circuit 8 is available in that size.
