I would go for 15s because with the Fit being so underpowered having to turn over one more inch in diameter is just going to hurt your acceleration. That was my thinking when i bought my rims.

 

two hundred and ten percent true!
15's are also lighter than 16's or 17's.

 

16x6.5?! thats weird.....

 

Yea.. Rota Boost in bronze come in 16x7 and full royal sports bronze comes in 16x6.5. dont know if its a typo or anything seen here: 18 Racing

 

Yeah, but would there be THAT much of a difference? And couldn't that be somewhat eliminated by a bit skinnier tire?

 

i like major brands like bridgestone, michellin, etc. but im currently
running on Falken912's and they seem to be doing fine for now.
the first 400miles was very iffy interms of grip but once i broke 500miles
it started to grip better.

 

actually since you lower the profile of the tires with increase in wheel
diameter, the circumference is very similar to stock.

now if you did 195/55/16 vs 195/55/15, that is a huge nono unless
you need that extra clearance for snow or something.

i recommend 195/50/15 (slighly smaller than stock for improved
acceleration ratio and better looks) or 205/45/16's.

 

per rota, they only come in 7" widths for 16's. click below.

i guess it wouldn't matter if you were using a lightweight aftermarket wheel though...if it was a 16 hfp rim, then yea, it weighs a bit.


but i'm all for 15's. i like the smaller look. but 16's are nice too. its just as big as i'd go.

 

my 17" rims weigh 15 lbs. i would go 16" wheels too..if i could find someone who would want to trade there 16" rgs for mine i would. but thats rare.


if everyone is saying that the stock rim is 16.4 ish lbs then to me thats weight reduction with big rims eh?

i mean it sure isnt like the rpf1 wheels but they are lighter...even though they are 2 inches bigger

 

you have to go by gross weight with the tires.

wheel weight is just there for reference.

 

Whats the difference between +40 and +45 offset?

 

Nope, just looked at a set of Full royal sports bronze and the sticker had 16x 6.5. After see FRS bronze in person is doesn't look as good as I thought it did. Even the regular Bronze was better.

 

measure the width to double check it's not some sleepy eye factory
worker placing wrong labels.
