Drop ain't happenin' for several reasons. This town has drainage dips all over the place, I sometimes carry 3-4 passengers and/or heavy loads and don't want to deal with any rubbing at all, and I am pretty happy with the way the 16X7's +40 and 195/50's fill out the wheelwells. I also go fishing a lot and drive some fairly rough roads occasionally.

i think that u should do coilovers so u could do a little drop n still compensate for those reasons:D

Wheels look good and is that a Corolla/Matrix antenna?

I like the yellow wheels on the VBP, not feeling the windshield banner... everyone knows it's a Honda from that giant "H" on the grill.

07fitsport Jul 11, 2008 10:55 AM

Thanks!

Yellow is my favorite color for cars and since I couldn't get a yellow Fit, I got my yellow fix another way:).

I'm also an air show junkie and have always liked the Navy Blue Angels color scheme.

Thanks!

The new wheels/tires filled out the wheelwells better than I expected they would.

I might even try adding some mild spacers in the back to get them out as flush as the fronts. It's a cheap investment if it doesn't work out. Not sure if that would add any undue stress to the bearings/suspension, etc.

Yep, it's a Corolla/Matrix antenna.

I was getting crappy FM reception with the stock shorty and this one improved it significantly.

I don't listen to FM much, but it was a cheap mod for when I do.

Yeah, I might be losing the banner or replacing it with something else.

Who knows, it's always going to be a work in progress.

I've thought about adding some more yellow, maybe yellow emblems and other details, but I like the way the wheels pop and thought adding more yellow might detract from that.

Might try the yellow emblems and see how that works.

I have some Coverking neoprene seat covers, but they're blue and black because I bought them way before the wheels. If I bought them now, they'd be yellow.

thanks for your comments

wow man I love those wheels.
and cool idea about the antenna, i mostly listen to AM, so I may give it a try.

I'd be rollin' in a mini if it had more room, but then it wouldn't be a mini:).

I spent about two hours the other day on the mini website. They have several thousand ways to build one because there are so many options.

NJ-Fit Jul 11, 2008 09:24 PM

I too am digging the yellow on blue look. Great contrast. I bet it looks mean when its rolling.

Kyle is raaddd Jul 11, 2008 09:36 PM

yeah man you should do coilovers :D
