GSR Blades
Okay, I test fit one of the GSR Blades today. Keep in mind...I didn't clean them up. I'll save that for when I add some winter tires. *which is why I'm not posting this in the A/C forum* I weighed both wheels + tires for fun. There are variables to consider:
1) The GSR Blades were the same tire size as the Fit Sport OEM tires, but the were Michelin XGT (195/55). They are worn down to the cords on the inside of the tire. I'm sure the tires might vary in weight between them with full tread. 2) I'm using a digital bathroom scale. It's of good quality...but it's just not the same since I had to balance the Fit Sport wheel a little to get it to stay upright without falling over. The GSR blade sat nicely however. If you can't tell by the pics I weighed the Fit Sport wheel + tire at 35.2 lbs and the GSR Blade + tire at 31.6 lbs. Anyways, here are the pics. I think they look good...almost like they were made for the car. http://members.cox.net/scoobysti/Fit/BladeandSport.JPG http://members.cox.net/scoobysti/Fit/FitSportweigh.JPG http://members.cox.net/scoobysti/Fit/Bladeweigh.JPG http://members.cox.net/scoobysti/Fit/Blade1.JPG http://members.cox.net/scoobysti/Fit/Blade2.JPG |

Mine are a little beat up, but I've actually considered using some summer tires on these and then figure out my winter situation later. Possibly get some 14" steelies or HX's for winter. |
Re: GSR Blades (Yellow Dragon)
Hey those look really good! I would not paint them personally.
You could also run the blades in front and oems in back for a true 'custom' look https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emwink.gif |

Re: GSR Blades (2point2cd5)
Looks better than the fit wheels, but pretty beat up looking.
Might be interesting if they were color matched to the car https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emsmilep.gif |
Re: GSR Blades (Yellow Dragon)
Man, those look nice on there!!! Keep up the good work. They go really well with the fit. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...es/emsmile.gif

I have all 4. I was just test fitting 1 of them. I was going to use them for winter, but I've decided to take a gamble and not get winter tires. I'll buy some summer tires for the Blades in the spring. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif |
Re: (Yellow Dragon)
looks like shit! Si wheels would look way beter.
|
I dont think so.
So what is so rough about them. Is it just the clearcoat peeling, rash, etc? |

Believe me. Its a VERY common misconception.
I was in the same boat before I got the total WTF factor. |
Re: (J Rod)
lol i believe you.
now i can send someone else the same "wtf" factor |
Re: (Nighthawk R18)
i got GSR blades
San Diego PM me if you want them lol |
I would go bigger. Go black rim and polished lip. I think a 16" would fit the wheel well better.

Re: GSR Blades (Yellow Dragon)

|
