Civic Wheels on a Fit?

Hi,

I'm thinking of buying a new 2009 Fit but I have a compatibility question. I've seen pics of 1st gen US Fits with wheels from previous gen Civics. Will my steel rims from my 2000 Civic for my snow tires work on a 2009 Fit?

Cheers,
John

Re: Civic Wheels on a Fit?

um... i want to say that they should fit.

the only thing you'd have to might worry about are the caliper clearance. but 14" steelies would probably clear. The 07, 08 fits run 14" steelies on the base model.

you might be able to get a more definite answer on FitFreak.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I tend to agree but I've been burned before with a part that looked as if it would cross from one Honda to another but didn't work. I'll post what I find out.

Cheers,
John

13" steelies will not work, you wont have the caliper clearance. 14" steelies will work with the base models, but check the sport model as it may have larger calipers.
