I went a different direction and fit bigger tires on stock suspension. Looks like they are about 1" bigger in diameter and a little narrower. It was real tight in there so I wouldn't have gone any bigger than the 215/65/16s I ended up with (Falken Wildpeak AT, late model Audi rims) on factory setup.
The tires are very nice; comfortable and quiet, very good in all the conditions the Northeast brings.
Pulled the trigger on the Falken WILDPEAK A/T 255/55R19 much beefier tires. No way the Ms. can curb rash the rims now.
I’ve had Falken Pro G5 all-season tires on my Fit for a year now, and for the price, they are very impressive. They grip surprisingly well when taking corners, and they haven’t experienced any dry rot or cracking despite the hot weather here in Texas.
Ran the 660’s this weekend. Like the feel and the grip on my Camaro. They did well with a heavy car.
Anyways, I'll be looking to get the RT's after seeing how well they perform locally I was amazed by them
Ran the 660s for the 1st time today on my CAM SS 1LE. Small, tight course, but they felt great.
I think the 660's are the 'smart choice' being $200 cheaper and would probably last longer than the Yoks, specifically because of only 1.3\* camber and outside shoulder wear. I've also heard they don't heat cycle out like the RE's, which is a huge bonus IMO.
I run 235/35/19 on a 19x8.5 up front. Koni coils, occasionally rubs on hard cornering or uneven pavement, but I'm pretty low so... Falken 452's
No experience with the Yoko's, but i've had about 5 sets of 512's and they don't last long, even with a good alignment.
