Toyo - Observe GSi-5 - 185/55R16 83H (This is the size for the Sport model)

I'm very impressed, the Fit is not a heavy car however the handling and traction are very good even with snow or snow/ice road.

I am running 185/65 r14 General Altimax Arctics that I had from my Civic. They 14“ steelies just clear the breaks, you may not be so lucky. The tires are brilliant and I will be getting another set.
