Just got e-mail on these wheels offset a little low for the Fit.

Details:
*15x8
*+20 offset
*13.1 lbs
*4x100
*JWL approved
*VIA 500kg certification

Another Awesome new super light wheel from Konig, aggressive 15x8 Fitment with 20mm offset means fender roll needed for most 90-97 Miatas but this can plug and play on 99-05 if using 205/50/15 tire size and at least 1.5 degrees negative camber. Cast and heat treated and just 13.1 pounds in this clear coated version. Center caps included.
Note that if you use stock lugs on this wheel you WILL SCRATCH IT UP badly because of the narrow and deep socket pockets on this design. Therefore, we STRONGLY recommend our McGard Spline drive two piece lugs or, our Team Dynamics forged lugs, with this wheel.
Takes an optional 73mm hubcentric ring available on this website (73/54 for Miata). Fits brakes on all 1990 through 2005 Miatas...and fits our BIG BRAKES!
This machined version is slightly less weight. MOUNTING NOTES: The Drop Center on this wheel is several inches from the top lip, making it difficult to mount stiff race tires on this rim unless you flip the wheel on the mounting machine. Still relatively easy mounting for street tires but race tires will need to be heated in the sun before attempting to mount them.
I thought this color might be a little too crazy until I recalled how much I liked the similar special edition factory wheels from Porsche

Cast and heat treated and just 13 pounds for black, red, and green....and an amazing 12.5 pounds in Full Anodized Bronze (lighter because finish process starts with polishing to get the anodized effect). Center caps included.

Looks kinda like a Rota Grid which I know is just a copy of something else... Still not too bad. I had Konig Flatout's 15x8 +25 and they took a lot of work to squeeze on... These might be a bit of a stretch...
