Default 2009 Honda Fit Wheels on Eg HB

I am wondering if the 16 x 6 Honda Fit Sport Wheels will work on my 1992 EG Hatch? I know the tires are too big so im planning on getting some 205/40-16s for them if they will work.

i know they will fit on the car but I am wondering if there has been anyone to do it yet? Any issues with rubbing or driveability issues with the +53 offset?

You will have to put a spacer in the back to keep from scrubbing. I machined a spacer out of a old brake caliper and it worked great. The front scrubbed alittle but only when turning really sharp. I had some 07 HFP Fit wheels on my 95 coupe.

Props to you, those HFP wheels look slick on that, I have been meaning to put some of those on my del sol for a while now. I love those wheels.

The HFP wheel is the same width and offset as the regular fit wheels. Im pretty sure the ones i had were 6.5" wide and +55 offset, but not 100% sure. Regardless, the will fit your hatch, besides needing a spacer in the rear.
