    Honda fit sport 16in wheels.

    Hey,

    The owner of my previous 2009 Honda Fit sport has given me my set of 16in mags back.

    How would these fit on my new Mirage ? It has stock tires. I plan on painting the wheels.

    Let me know

    If it has the OEM 185/55R16 tires it might be a issue with rubbing while turning. You'll probably need to run 195/45R16's in order to get enough clearance during turns and suspension compression.

    Rubbing, you say? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Okay, I'll stop the middle school humor.

    You will not find so many tyres 195/40/16 and they will be expensive too. I'd like 16 inch wheels as well and after a bit of digging i found that the 195/45/16 would be the best choice!
