Did you notice any change in fuel efficiency? I’m torn between 16s and 17s right now.
Totally! I saw a slight drop in fuel economy when I upgraded to 17s. But the visibility and handling make it worth it for me!
Just remember, bigger isn’t always better! Some people go for 18s, but that’s pushing it for a Fit, right? Haha.
Haha true! But sometimes those big rims just look so good! What a dilemma.
I think the tire profile also matters a lot, especially for ride comfort and performance. It’s a complex balance!
Very true, xwang. The right tire plus rim combination can really change your experience. Did you upgrade yours recently?

I actually did! Went with a slab of rubber for my 16-inch alloys. Made a world of difference. Smoother rides are the best!
I’m looking to add some sleek rims to my Honda Fit too! I’m keen on seeing how they can enhance the visual appeal. Anyone have suggestions on styles?

I recommend going for a lightweight alloy rim! They’ll not only look good but also improve performance. Can’t wait to share pics!
Before and after photos are a must! I’m planning to switch to some darker rims to match my Fit’s pearl white paint. Any tips on colors?
I think black or gunmetal rims would look amazing with a pearl white finish! They really make the car look sporty.
Exactly! I love how the right rim can change the whole vibe of a Honda Fit!
I’m more into colorful rims. A vibrant shade can really set your Honda apart! Anyone tried that approach?

I have pink rims on my Fit! They definitely get attention. Remember to balance the color with your car’s overall look.
That’s bold! What color is your Fit? I’m curious about how it all ties together.
My Fit is a light blue. I chose the pink rims for a playful contrast! You’ve got to have fun with it.
Are there any specific brands you guys recommend? I’m looking for something durable yet stylish.
I’ve had good luck with Enkei and Konig rims. They offer some stylish options that fit perfectly with the Honda Fit.
Nice! I’ll check those brands out. Does anyone have a favorite rim size for the Fit?

I think 16 to 17 inches is the perfect size. It gives a good balance between aesthetics and performance without compromising ride quality.
