No, a new tire size will not affect the odometer if properly selected. See this link at miata.net (my other car).
Tire size calculator
As long as the outside diameter is the same you can use any size wheel that fits over the brake calipers (for the Fit the smallest size wheel is a 14", anything smaller will interfere with the caliper). Play around with it, you can use 195/40/18 tires (if you can find them) if you want to go with bigger rims
. Won't affect the odometer or speedometer one bit.
As far as mpg is concerned if you go to snows you'll always get lower mileage. Not much, I'm seeing 1mpg less.
