aftermarket wheels for Fit CAUTION

Couldn't find an aftermarket 16x7 or 17x7 with proper offset to fit the 09.
The 09 will need 50 mm offset at least.

07/08 had a 55 offset stock wheel so im sure 40-50mm would still fit.

I'm not sure why you keep ripping on the 09 so much, for someone who's a mod you're supposed to remain fairly neutral. Not to mention your milano pink fit isn't the tits you think it is...

Hahaha! you tell him dude. What's up with the '09 hate? I think it's all jealousy. I admit that I may not like the exterior of the '09 but overall, IT IS A BETTER FiT than the 1st gen.

Sorry.


went outside right now to look at the 09 fit we have and a 17x7 with 40 offset would probably kinda flush in the front.

Honda listened to the consumers about their dislikes about the 1st gen. They added power, center armrest (A/T only), dead pedal, better positioned/spaced pedals, telescoping steering wheel, I really like the rear seat headrests, and the the extra storage space from the magic seats. When I said that it was better than the 1st gen, I didn't mean that it was a whole different car. It's still a Fit, just more refined, as in much more comfortable. And I'm totally diggin' the i-vtec. That's the probably the biggest improvement Honda made to the 2nd gen.

Because I can. And just because Im an ADMIN (not a mod) doesnt mean I bite my tongue. Yes I do keep somethings to myself but I can still express my opinions.

And I dont mod my Fit to please anyone else.
Its mine, its modded for me.

oohhh no, i hate the exterior. the 'A' pillar window looks awkward and it has a huge nose. yeah, i meant interior makes the 2nd gen "better." but anyways, let's get back on topic.
