Offset of 18 inch CU2 wheels?

[Rudy]

Im looking to buy some CU2 18 inch wheels for my standard accord but I cannot find the offset listed anywhere... If someone knows this or has the car themselves, can they please tell me!

Thanx so much!

I think the 18's are 45, and the 17's are 48. I have to find out for sure too.
A was going to ask at 10k service, but forgot. Still might pick up the phone.....

Just take off one of the wheels it will be on the inside if you want to be exact.

Otherwise it will probly be similar to the CL9 Euro.

If you do find out, make sure you post back here!

The offset is 55 which is the same as the cl9.I had a 2003 luxury and put aftermarket wheels on it but found that there was not alot available that I liked as the car was so new to the market.I purchased a 2009 luxury manual in November and there still is not a great range available but I have ordered a set of ROH 3 peice modular wheels in the strada design in 18 X 8 with a 55 offset.The trouble is that I have to wait till late March for them to arrive.

Thanks Thomas! Would you consider selling your stock Euro rims to me once your ROH arrive? Send me a PM if you would consider it.

Regards

I don't think dish would look any good with the big guards anyway.
There's still plenty of room for big rubber though! ;)

I take it you want to take ones from a CL9 and use on CU2?

Smaller will look shite, and the speedo is already out a fair bit with the base's 225/50R17's (smaller than lux's).

Yes, they would fit. Plenty of room in the CU2 guards.
Base euro has 17x7.5 stock.

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum but thought I would throw in my two bobs worth.

re, will 18 x 7.5 +45 offset fit the CU2?

The answer is yes in theory, however it also depends on the design of the wheel, some have bigger spoke clearances than others. They call this the x factor.

I had a set of Koya R1's in 18 x 7.5 +45 offset test fitted this week. It was a no go the fronts fouled on the CU2's massive front brake calipers. Its back to the drawing board for me.

They look to have a flat style of dish so you probably would be able fit them. The problem I had with the R1's was the depth of the dish.

I am now thinking about a set of Tenzo Type M.

Not sure though if they are even available in Aus at this point.

You can get it from Tempe Tyres. I think they have it under Lenso name in black with red pin stripe.

[Sludge]

Thanks Atjo, but I am looking for them in machined black.
