I realize it's Miata specific, but the wheel sizes and bolt patterns are similar to the Civic...

I put some old Miata wheels on my Fit -- I stuck w/ the 14" size and they weigh less than the stock steelies.

Sorry in advance for posting about a non-hybrid car. We needed something that was great on gas and versatile; we also couldn't afford hybrid prices. I am averaging 39mpg in the Fit.

Hi All
I am on the side that wants the car to look as nice as possible as well as get great mileage. The tinted windows can be an energy saver in the summer. The wheels at $99@ compliment the car's looks too and are 4 pounds lighter than the silly slab sided saucers that honda put on the car. Check out the results at http://www.gestner.net/civic.htm
