Here is a hopefully more usable link to the Borbet CA wheels:

Sorry about that first one (it was via my '07 Fit specs).

Because the wheels are actually for a Civic I had to grind off of the brakes up front...

Did you notice a loss in your turning radius? If so how much?
Do the wheels rub on sharp turns?
Thanks in advance.

But when I had it 10 mm lover it rubbed a little at full turn.
The strange thing is that when I had just the "cutted" lowering springs it did'nt rubb at all. And it was like 80 mm. lower up front. But when I had it like 60 mm lower with the coilovers it rubbed..?
Strange!?
