2015 Honda Fit EX-L - Any idea what are the 16" wheel specs?

Hey, I'm new here and I apologize if my initial research in this forum did not yield the results I was looking for.

So, let me pose the question now, if it hasn't been asked or posted: 2015 Honda Fit EX-L - Any idea what are the OEM 16" wheel specs that come with the EX-L are?

Obviously, they are 16" diameter, how about the width? 16x?

Does anyone also know the offset? ET??

Lastly, is it safe to assume the lug size is 4x100?

Anythings to consider if looking for an aftermarket wheel? Does having TPM make a difference?

Thanks in advance.

On the EX, the 16" tires are 185/55, H rated...I assume they are the same on the EX-L. Mine have Bridgestone Turanzas but I read recently where they are switching to Firestone mid production...but no explanation as to why.

Thanks for the info, but I'm actually interested in the wheels themselves, not the tires.

Cool! Exactly the info I was looking for.. will help when looking for aftermarket wheels and how they may fill up the fender wells, especially knowing the OEM wheels width as well as Offset when comparing to something aftermarket.

Thanks!

hub bore is 56.1
a 25mm spacer in the rear brings out the stock tires enough to look similar to the front.
I would say 20mm spacer would be the same look as a stock front, offset wise. 25 is out a teeny bit further.

That would mean if the stock wheel is 6.5in with +45 offset, then keeping width at 6.5", a +25 offset wheel would fit perfectly (as in, the same as the front). These are NOT hella flush measurements btw.
And of course if you change the wheel width, then take the (new wheel width) - 6.5", divide by two, convert to mm, and add that number to the +25 to get the exact same fitment as the stock wheel with a 20mm spacer (flushness wise at least).

Oh good god NO. Not Firestone.

I had Firestones on my 98 Ranger that were not part of the recall (because they caused crashes) but were the worst tires I ever had on the truck.

I took delivery of my Fit a few days ago, and pulled a wheel yesterday to confirm the size is 16x6 (not 6.5 as I had read elsewhere and repeated here in another post). Offset is +53mm, hub bore is 56.1mm as mentioned above. Bolt pattern is 4-100.

My car has the Bridgestones (185/55R16) - my car's build sequence is in the 19000 range.

I just ordered a set of 16x7 +40 wheels and 205/45R16 tires for my car and will post pics when they are installed. I will probably add a 10-15mm spacer to the rears depending on how they look.

Here's a link to an interactive tool you can use to compare different wheel/tire setups: Custom rims, wheel tire packages for your ride - RIMSnTIRES.com

(edited to correct offset to +53, not +45)

Anyone know the weight of the stock 2015 FIT EX rim? I looked everywhere including going to one of my local dealers and no one knows. Manufacturer of the rim would help too. Thanks.
