What Wheels Would You Get

I just picked up and Tidewater Blue 09 Fit Sport and was thinking that I may want to get different wheels. I was wondering what wheel and color would you get? I'm looking at either the Mugen wheels or maybe some Volks in white or mag blue. Your thoughts?

Which Mugen wheels? Which Volk Racing wheels? You'll have to be a lot more specific. Both companies have a gaggle of wheel designs to their name.

If you can score Mugen XJ wheels those would be great in white.

Enkei Racing RPF1 wheels are a great choice if you want a light weight racing wheel and performance and value is important to you.... The 15"x7" wheels weigh 9 1/2 lbs, with some 17 lb performance touring tires you will have removed unsprung weight and rotating mass and made a major performance improvement.

Well what would YOU get?
It is your car you know, not ours



BUT, if it were mine, I'd get 16x10 Work Equip first gens. 0 offset in the front, -15 in the rear.

I was thinking the Mugen XJ wheels or Mag Blue TE37's. I've seen the Mugen wheels online and they seemed to be priced quite reasonably and I can get a deal on the Volks. The Mugens would go with all the other Mugen parts I ordered so I guess I'm leaning towards those. With that being said, Mag blue is one of my favorite colors for rims.

For the uninitiated, these are the Mugen XJ wheels, mounted on the Mugen GE Fit F154SC concept car from the Tokyo Auto Salon 2008.


Looks good on either GD or GE, but the 4x100 version looks meant to be mounted on GEs IMO If you can live with the main drawback of white wheels (they get dirty so easily) this would be a good choice. XJs do come in darker colors though.

I'll piggyback onto larshnordli's statement just because I have a VBP Sport and some black Volk RE30s gathering dust in a room.

Here you go with stock height and lowered but this is 5 lugs though but still you get the idea.

That is a look that is sure to be copied.... Don't flame me for saying this but for some reason the stock stance is more appealing to me in the pictures.

Calm down Kyle... You can talk like that all you like when you are old, senile and strapped to your bed in a psychiatric hospital.... Then and there it will get you a small glass of very special orange juice that will make you happy and very peaceful.... I like the ultra drop the best of all.... Have you been drinking special orange juice by any chance? I'll have mine soon.

My vote is TE37's, Mugen 16's are to small for the Ge due to it enormous wheel well.

I actually picked up a set of 18" Te37's. I think a spacer in the rear would set it off too!!!
