Where to find new hub caps for 2016 Honda fit LX

Hi.

I'm looking to change the hub caps on my 2016 LX. There are a lot of 15" hub caps on eBay. But not too many listed for the 2015-16 fits.

Would ones listed for the 2014 or earlier Fits work on my 15" wheels?

Thanks

Are the 15" steel wheels the same on the 3rd generations fits as the 2nd generation?

Most 15" hubcaps should fit your car with no problems

Hey hongz. Those look great. Please post a picture of them on your fit if you have one.

Do they fit pretty snug?

Those do look good, although I would only ever consider the grey or silver ones. Relatedly, does anyone know of good-looking styled steel wheels for 2016 Fit, such that the car would look good with the steel wheels and no plastic covers? I had a Nissan Xterra where the base car's painted steel wheels were more attractive (to me) than the higher model's alloys, even before considering the price. On the new Fit, both the EX alloys and the LX wheel covers look to me like food processor blades rather than nice spoked wheels, but the naked steel wheels, even if painted silver rather than black, wouldn't do.

Here are the picture you want.
Those caps fit the wheel pretty steady. I have a LX so the original was the cheap-looking silver ones. black is def better

I want to rock my steelies, but…

I think the black steelies underneath the honda wheel covers look about 10 times better. However I need to cover up the hub part with a center cap. I measured our 15 in wheels center to be roughly 55mm inside diameter. I ordered some cheap genaric center caps off ebay, but I'm still not convinced they're going to fit perfect and they're going to take like 8 weeks to get here for some reason.

Anybody got any ideas for this problem I'm having, by the way I'm completely new to this forum and I'm not really sure I'm doing this right. This is also my first honda and i f*cking love it!!!!

I just put winter tires on steelies on my fit and am wondering if I need to do this too? Not planning on running hubcaps b/c the steel wheels look fine, but do I need to be worried about covering the center caps that have already started to rust?

Since we are on the subject of hubcaps for the LX, does anyone know what hubcap design would help increase MPGs? Are there hubcaps sold for that particular purpose?

I think for fit, hubcap helping get better MPG is really a, how to say that, if not a joke then might be something on paper only.
It won't. for racing car might be, however for a budget car i haven't notice that.
Probably a better windflow or something like that might help with better MPG.
