2007 Honda Fit Sport.

Currently on stock 15" rims and 195/55 tires. Coming up for a tire change, I am wondering if I should get 14" rims? I can get some 14" rims (2002 Civic Hybrid) and 185/70/14 Michelin Destiny tires. Or stick with my current rims and get the same Destiny tires (185/65/15). What do you think? Will I see a noticeable amount of MPG gains?
