I like the look alot, thought 15s would be too small, but your car pulls these rims off very nicely.

Son Mutequi 12x1.5mm en Negro. Las otras que compré eran Rays Dura Nuts en 12x1.5mm en Azul, estan cabronas pero el asiento de estas tuercas es muy grande para estos aros. Estos aros piden tuercas pequeñas, fui pa Auto Drive, donde compre las Rays, y me las cambiaron por las Mutequi con $100 de sobra.

yeah rubbing blows, that's why I went with +45! ah well, I think I can get this fixed with new springs =T I Don't really want to roll on HFP wheels why does the Fit have to be so picky.

Wow, looks great. Lovin the polished look. *New wheel idea?*
All of you stop bitching about rubbing!!!!! If you dont want issues leave the car stock, or keep the stock offset/tire size.

I hate reading all these threads about tire fitment and rubbing. Just do it, if it rubs fix it!!! Our fenders are made from left over cans. Pull on them to stop the rubbing.

Or the easy way, put the damn wheels on and drive it around. Let it rub away!

It wasnt really directed towards you; its just all these post about "Will this set-up rub?" "Will these fit my Fit?"

I think they all need to be deleted, maybe a sticky needs to be made with people posting their springs/drop, rim size, rim width, offset, tire size, and if it rubs.

A bit of negative camber could solve the
rubbing problem in the front... without eating
the tires if the toe is set correctly...

Pulling on the front fenders actually works!! My P1 17s rubbed in front when i put them on a few months ago. After a few days of noise I got fed up and gently yanked the fenders out. It hasn't rubbed since!! The clearance was that close. To all those who rub up front, give it a try. Just go easy, these body panels are very thin.

I rolling on Nippon 18x7.5 +45 18lbs wheels with 215/35r18 Continentals. No drop, No rubs, but had no people in the back either yet. I did the finger test and 2 1/2 in rear and 3 in the front. Enjoy.

thanks guys for the comments.

As for the rubbing issue.. well this thread wasn't made to point out that "hey I rub, what can I do?" I wanted to show off the new wheels and stated that I rubbed when I thought I wouldn't and WITHIN the thread, I asked and got ideas. As for the fix, I've already gone about doing something for it.. I bought a different set of springs. I'm not here to bitch, but I'm sure through this thread people can get more information with wheels/spring/ rubbing issues. I did a lot of research and things before getting the wheels but turns out not enough.

Also stay tuned, plan to take new pics either this weekend or the next... need to get the car washed after all this rain =T
