Any one running 16x8 wheels? Is it possible?
I'm in love with a set of wheels. XXR 530s.
Only issue is I don't think the smallest size for 16's (16x8) will fit my Fit (heh) without some issues. My car is also lowered about 1.5 inches on H&R springs.
Would this be possible with rolling the fender or something? I'm really in love with these wheels.

I have 16x8's on my gk fit. +20 offset though. definitely wont fit on a lowered car without fender modification. But with a regular offset I see no reason why they wouldnt fit. its truely going to come down to tire size to depend on it you will rub or not. Maybe max tire width of 205 or 195 for a really stretched look. and a ratio of 35-45. I would like to think the offset would need to be in the +40ish area

This threads kinda old but I have 16x8 +38 on my Ge8 with 225/45 and its lowered but not slammed. Front about barely 1 and a half finger gap. It rubs a little when I make turns or bumps. Not too bad, prolly just roll front fender. Rear no problem. I think 38mm is a good offset for 16x8. Depends on what you're going for. I want the meaty/track look.i think a 45 profile doesn't look tall enough for 16's... Still looks small sometimes with 225

Not sure about gk but for my ge, before I had 225's on for my 16x8.. I had 205/45 on stock suspension before lowering it. It didn't rub at all but looked like a 4x4 with stock height lol. It's gonna highly depend on tire size and depending on how low with 8inch. If I could go back I would rather get a 16x7 set up rather than 8 but I'm still happy
