I recently bought 15 inch Rota Grids and R-S3s for my 2012 Fit Sport. I am in need of suspension due to an amazing amount of wheel gap. I went down a size on purpose -I do not want to roll my fenders when I lower it.

Two other notes:
I autox with her.
I prefer coilovers.


Thanks in advance!!!

 

Plenty of options but I would stick with the name brands like Buddy club,Koni,HKS etc.

also do you have a budget? and what size tire are you running?
check out Form Function coilovers and the Buddy club both are under 1K and give a decent drop and adjustability.

 

No budget. I want something worth buying that will last a while. 15 in tire

Thanks.

 

I think the Buddy Club coilover would work for you.
Buddy Club N+ Coilover Damper Kit - Honda Fit 09+ - Bean Garage

 

If you AutoX I DO NOT Recommend the Buddy Club's, spring rates are too soft, aaand the valving is for softer springs.

He only made 5 sets initially of his Koni insert based coils for the GE and I don't know what he has left... Detials here about 1/2 way down 2009 Fit Suspension Page

They do/did a TON of work and support on STC Civics and Chris has run his own GE at SCCA stuff. If you want to run race valved mono tubes, single or double adjust or whatever he is your guy! Also he lets you pick your own spring rates at no charge, or upgrade to Swift springs!

Always fun to meet another AutoX'er! If you want to compare notes, PM me anytime! Lots of GREAT info here as well... https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...ml#post1176949

 

And as a follow up, as far as clearance goes, 225 45R15 RS3's? How much camber are you intending to run in the front? Wheel width and offset? The rear is always where things get tricky on our cars...

 

OP... Here is a recent thread where this was all discussed in depth
