Just wondering if any of you guys or gals are running 16x8 with super low offets and stretched tires with or without drop. I seem to only see a lot of GDs running them and was curious to see a GE with this set up. Im looking into getting wheels for my '12 Fit and would like to see this type of set up. Any comment or pics would be greatly appreciated.

 

TTT I would like some info on this aswell.

 

+1. 16x8 +20 are what I'm interested in

 

I wish wheel companies would be able to supply wheels for the trends in the market. The widest wheel tirerack shows is a 7.5 for a 2012 Fit. I really would like to get 16x8's but the offset is going to be critical I think in fitment. I am not looking to pull my fenders, I would roll them though. Just because they say a wheel only works on certain cars doesn't mean it won't work on others. Some day we'll get an accurate answer.

 

Thats what ill be getting, ill give yah up on how it fit an stuff. Just waiting on the rims now.

 

ummm... there's quite a few that offers what you're looking. you just need to know where to look.

here's for starts...
�šRS-WATANABE�š
SIZE / OFFSET / HOLES / PCD
16x8 +5/10/15 4or5 98 to 120
16x8 +25/30/35 4or5 98 to 120
16x8.5 +5/10/15 4or5 98 to 120
16x9 +20/25/30 4or5 98 to 120

Let me know if you want them... I know who can get it.

 

that'd be cool if someone can drop some knowledge here. I have a GE but I'm running 15x8 with +15 offset and stretched tires of 185/50/15

 

Nice! Any pics so we can have an idea of what it looks like?

Thanks!

 

Sorry if all you can see is a dirty windshield haha . This is the most recent photo I have of my car :/ You can't see much but if you zoom in or something maybe you can see the rim's lip poking out of the tire . I'll try to get side view pictures ASAP.

 

I can tell you FROM EXPERIENCE if you run an 8" wide wheel, an offset of 43 would be perfectly level with the edge of the front fender, and 8 et35 will ve perfectly level in the rear. To make a 16x8 et20 work, you are talking 205/40-16 tires, and probably a slight pull in the front. That is, if you want it to look decent.

Here are some GE8's running 16x8 (all found by going to Google and searching ge8 fit 16x8)
