[buddah51au]

Opinions on what wheels you would choose for a White CU2. 19x8 with 235/35x19 tyres

Personally, i wouldn't go for chrome. But if you had to, i would definitely pick the first style you linked.

here it is relinked because it was kinda stuffed in your post:

Definately 19x8.
Chrome / polished on white does go good.

I like these:

[buddah51au]

Thanks for that link Type R. I also believe chrome or polished is the only way to go on a white car

[defibros]

What about on graphite gray colour
what do u guys suggest in terms of colour?

i like JDM wheels :)

I got gray car too! YAY! :D
I like the chrome / polished rims look on grey.
If you after tuner look, white or bronze always looks good.
I think black on graphite looks shite.

Mines all stock too. Waiting till more stuff comes out for CU2 first.

[buddah51au]

Polished or Chrome i believe is the way to go on most colours And they are less effected by stone chips which can't be avoided

[denot]

hmmm Lets turn the question the other way around :p, if I got gunmetal grey rims... what car colour is suitable for me then? :p

[crunkman99]

why not get 22s on a CU2

Mind you, the guards do look great filled out.

Too prone to punctures. a good pothole will cost you a rim and a tyre

White

^^^ LOL Buddah, you kno I fell in love with the white already :p

[buddah51au]

^^^ LOL Buddah, you kno I fell in love with the white already :p

Personally i think it is the best colour in the range, If you look into the future white & silver tend to have the best resale values. But everyone to their own taste.

[Atjo]

Why don't use black rims with white lip like this S5.

Only issue I have with black wheels is that when the car is moving, you can't really see the wheel design very well and it can be a bit hard to tell if it is an alloy wheel at all.

[.QD]

Do you drive with your head sticking out the window watching your wheel design while your driving?

[denot]

^^^ hahahah not me, but I do look @ the wheel design if I want to take a pic of my car while a friend's driving it :p

[SteveH]

Do you drive with your head sticking out the window watching your wheel design while your driving?

Of course I do, doesn't everyone? I just find that when you see a car drive past with black wheels, it doesn't look like it has aftermarket wheels at all.

[Atjo]

Since when stock rims come in black?

[.QD]

When it's covered in brake dust :)

[.QD]

Of course I do, doesn't everyone? I just find that when you see a car drive past with black wheels, it doesn't look like it has aftermarket wheels at all.

I think it's more the spoke pattern than the colour if you know what I mean.

[buddah51au]

Black wheels do nothing for me I'm afraid.

Gunmetal gray rims look great on every colour. :thumbsup:

[buddah51au]

Gunmetal rims look ok, but to me they are not as classy as polished alloy or chrome. I think they may tend to cheapen the appearance of the CU2

Chrome looks classy? Personally, i can't stand any sort of chrome - imo they look cheap.

I agree.Go polished alloy.

[denot]

Chrome looks classy? Personally, i can't stand any sort of chrome - imo they look cheap.

sorry buddah but I have to disagree (for the first time perhaps :p) with you on this and agree with Kimnkk here...

Chrome wheels and bling2 wheels are no no for me... But hey, its only my personal opinion though... :angel: Also perhaps coz I like the "sporty" look still than the "classy" look (otherwise I will fell in love with the Accord Asia instead of Euro XD)

[buddah51au]

I have plenty of pictures of exotic cars. In my personal view nothing looks better than polished alloy centers with chrome lips, regardless of the colour of the car.
But every individual has their own views & thoughts, but that is what makes the world what it is.
Can you imagine what it would be like if we all thought the same, what a dull world it would be

[denot]

HAHAHA LOL thats true... same with that we need to thank SATAN to persuade Eve to eat the forbidden fruit. coz can you imagine what would our life like if Adam and Eve didnt eat the forbidden fruit??? :p

[buddah51au]

Personal opinions vary so much when it comes to cars. A classic example is i would never drive my car without a car bra, even though i know they spoil the look. But at the same time i know they stop 80% of stone chips & i cant stand those little devils. I still have the Bra off my FD1 in the cupboard, no one wants it. But i guess living in the bush has a lot to do with my view as well.

[denot]

^^^ AAAAH Bloody stone chips!!! I got one from the trip through the national park last weekend... :( the horror... THE HORROR...

anyway back to the CU2 hehehhe

[buddah51au]

HAHAHA LOL thats true... same with that we need to thank SATAN to persuade Eve to eat the forbidden fruit. coz can you imagine what would our life like if Adam and Eve didnt eat the forbidden fruit??? :p

The question is which of them strayed? No offence meant, but we now have whites, hispanics. blacks, asians,. Obviously 1 of they was straying from the nest.....lol.....or was it satan himself.

[denot]

anywayyyyyyyyyy heheheh i think we need to delete our "unrelated" posts now buddah :p

anyway, regarding CU2 wheels, what spare wheels do we get for the Lux model? 17"?

At least 20" on CU2 man :p 18x7.5 is fine.

Atjo, u 100% sure that it will do fine mate? I got the 225/40/18 tyres on my new XD7 and I dont want to be in a position where I have to sell the new wheels and tyers if I trade my civic with the Euro :(

If they fit on a civic, they damn well fit on a euro! :)

[buddah51au]

If they fit on a civic, they damn well fit on a euro! :)

Just done some calculations for you Denot,
Stock tyre = 225/50x17. the correct replacements are:-

235/45x18......245/35x19

If you fit 225/40x18 the figures are

Standard revs per mile = 780 versus 804 for the 18"

speedo error would be 100kph standard versus 95kph for the 18"

so in reality if you fir 225/45x18 they are slightly too small.

hope that helps

[denot]

thanks buddah... as long as the rims fit, I can change the tyres later right?

Nice rims on those porsches ..... What are your thoughts of a set of 19x8. With offset 40 konig next rims on a graphite gray cl7.....???sorry to hijack this thread but you guys give great tips

[Atjo]

Should be alright. The front might rub the guards. I'm using 19x8.5 +40 & 19x9.5 +35.

[defibros]

It will rub even when I don't plan to lower it at first ???
What about the looks?will the rims look ok on it ?

[Atjo]

It won't rub if it's not lowered. This was my friend's euro. He's using 19x8 & 19x8.5 but i couldn't remember his offset. It might be between 40-45.

[Sludge]

I have done three months of research on this subject and the bottom line (at least for the CU2 Lux) is the following.

Stock rubber is 235/45/18 on 8" +55 offset wheels. If you go to 7.5" rims the 235 will still fit comfortably and a change to a +45 offset is OK and from my experience will clear the guards.

Any lower offset would increase the track by over 20mm. In NSW (don't know about other states) it is only legal to increase your track by 25mm (that would be +43 offset). I am told that an increase of more than 10mm in offset will put a lot of strain on the running gear, may void your warranty and insurance, not to mention you will probably have to roll the guards.

The other issue that I have encountered is the 'x factor' of the wheel, the CU2 has massive front brake calipers and even with a change to +45 offset a lot of wheels have a dish that is too deep and fouls on the caliper.

I have been shopping around for months now and the retailers really have no idea given the model is so new. I had one guy try to sell me +35 offset wheels and then when I insisted on nothing under +45 he wanted to put 5mm spacers behind the wheels.

My advice do your research before you buy.

By the way this is the best calculator I have found.

I've seen that photo before, it is an Acura in the States so not sure if the wheel would even be available here.

And a 22' wheel!!!! You would need to fit a 25 profile rubber band to get close to maintaining the correct wheel circumference. Ouch!

The tires don't look like 35's though, does the Acura run a different configuration to the Euro?

Mate one look at the lip on those I'd say no way they will fit over the front brakes, even if they are a 55 offset, which I doubt.

These are mine, they are a similar style and they fit (18x8 45 offset).

Tenzo Type M

Taleb Tyres fitted them and they stock them, however I didn't deal direct with them I purchased them through a third party XDC Automotive in Sydney and they were great in finding a wheel for me that both fits and is legal.

Good luck, I found it a very frustrating experience (4 months) finding the right wheel.

Guys, any1 kno what are the minimum Tyre Load rate for CU2?

[Type R Positive]

Guys, any1 kno what are the minimum Tyre Load rate for CU2?placard says 98.

[denot]

thanks Type R... my question was asked before I purchase the CU2 and now I have the info already :p

anyway, refering to Buddah on the 1st post of this thread, 235/35/19... I cant seem find any with 98+ load rate... is it true if hte wheels is bigger, we can use lower load rate?

[denot]

^^^ why you delete your post Rudy?

[Rudy]

^^^ why you delete your post Rudy?

Oh I thought I put in the wrong info for the oem spec cu2 wheel, but i looked it up all good now. If you are going for 19s, dont get 235/35, get 245/35 atleast. The load rating on 235 is too small (91) and it will leave more wheel gap. 245/35 matches the oem rolling diameter almost exactly. You dont have to get a 98, just make sure the weights match up...ie the load rating on whatever tyre you get can still comfortably support the weight of each corner. You have some room to move as the placard it comes with is inflated to much greater than the actual car weight.

Yes Rudy, if you look @ the calculation its abit weird... The Accord Thai is heavier than Euro, but they only use 94V as the load rate!!! my friend say the same thing as what u sed, he use 88 on his CL9 and nothing bad happened to him or the car... (yet? :p)


polished silver work emotion XT7

hahaha, I'm still thinking on using my XT7 18x7.5 on the CU2, but worried about the tyre to use...

[buddah51au]

It's not a worry as long as nothing happens, However if your ever in an unfortunate position & your tyres are checked you could be in deep shit if the load rating is below manufactured specs. Therefore you should use tyres with a minimum 98 load rating. You can go up, but you can't come down.

hey buddah, cant seem to find 235/35/19 on 98 load rate mate... I dont think 235/45/19 will fit on 19x8 + CU2 right?

Actually thats not true, the vicroads guideline is misleading, I had a 91 on a 94 V car and a vicroads certified engineer said it was ok after he checked the weights...i had almost 100kg to spare on each corner. Its more about the actual weight rating compared to actual car weight, not simply the number.

235/45 will be too much over stock diameter. 235/40 will work but tyres in this size are rare and incredibly expensive. Best to go with 245/35 imo.

Rudy,

I tried google 235/45 and its return almost nothing... but I can find 235/40 cheap everywhere... got quote $225 ea for 235/45 and $175 ea for 235/40.

also, 235/45 is the stock tyre for the Euro Lux (18x8) the only problem is the width (will buldge out by 1 cms ish)

245/35 is a match for the standard 17 overall diameter, i didnt check the sport luxury diameter.

But you are right, you can go 235/40 in fact I would recommend that as the priority. The one small problem is that this is a very rare size, i think only 2 companies can get this size in aus, one being bridgestone, and the price is literally double per tyre than in 245/35. I know this cause i was in the exact same position and ended up getting the 245/35. However, if you are prepared to fork out the cost , then definately get the 235/40/19.

Denot, there is no such thing as a good cheap tyre, in the size your looking at I seriously doubt you will get a reasonable quality tyre under $350 & more than likely around $400 each. Stay away from cheap imports.

Even the stock Yokohama's fitted to the Standard Euro are on the high side of $300 each.

There is such thing as a good value for money tyre. I recommend Sumitomo Z3, Jap made (they own part of dunlop) .... can get from any Tyre Factory store. Actually ranked as the number 1 tyre online against more well known such as yoko and potenza.

I got my 245/35/19 for 285 each. I would say its hard to find a cheaper good tyre, but they definately do exist. Falken 452 is another good one for considerably less and jap made.

[buddah51au]

Each to their own i guess, but the only thing between me and the road is my tyres, sure it makes little difference on a dry road, but when the heavens open you need tyres you can rely on. Falken 452 r a fairly good tyre, but wouldn't last me a year. Sumitomo i wouldn't touch. If I were buying tyres I would be looking at the upper Yokohama range, Michelin Pilot Preceda, or maybe Bridgestone Potanza"s. Another possible consideration maybe Continental sports, there are some good reports on those.

Tyres are like anything else, you get what you pay for

[yourfather]

tbh, sumitomo being the largest trading corporation in the world and manufacturing tyres in japan to japanese standards will be infinitely superior to any Chinese made and many american branded asian made tyres.

i'd not write them off.

that being said, every vehicle at my house runs on Yokohamas, A-drives, S-Drives and Geolandars

I love Yokohamas because they are made with quality materials and they wear consistently.

my S-Drives were amazing on my dc2

If I were buying tyres I would be looking at the upper Yokohama range, Michelin Pilot Preceda, or maybe Bridgestone Potanza"s. Another possible consideration maybe Continental sports, there are some good reports on those.

Tyres are like anything else, you get what you pay for
I've heard good things about The Sumitomo Z3s(i think they are).But in saying that you do get what you pay for in tyres which is why i run Conti Sport Contact 3s on my car.They really suit the euro.Semi sport semi comfort and excellent in the wet.Also wear well.Got 47K out of the CSC2s.BUT not cheap.

245/35 is a match for the standard 17 overall diameter, i didnt check the sport luxury diameter. I'd go something closer toward the bigger Lux size tyre diameter for sure, purely for better speedo accuracy. :)

How did you get insurance for 22s? I thought the legal load limit is 19x8...

Your not wrong there, at the moment 1 US$ - $1.46 AU. But you could be sure that you would have exclusive wheels.

[yourfather]

I promise you Mr Buddah there are way better wheels out there....

[buddah51au]

there probably are, but each of us has individual tastes and at the moment I haven't decided 1 way or the other. Personally I like the look of those wheels, but i haven't said i am definitely going to get a set. I may even stay with the originals, only time will tell. let me also add that we have a lot of dealings with $US & the weaker the AU$ is the better for us.

Thanks to those that agree with me. Yes they are expensive, & you would need to import them privately but if you got a set you know that regardless of how many CU2's are out there it is likely you would be 1 of a very few that had these wheels. Add to that that I am fortunate to be dealing with US currency on a daily basis the exchange rate doesn't come into it for me.
For those of you that would like this wheel in Black (not really to my liking) even though it could look great on a white car

Try Michelin Australia their Web site shows a Pilot Sport in 245/40 x 19 rated 98. Depends of course what width rims you are looking at but that should fit 7.5' to 9'. You would be 5 ml taller and 10 ml wider than the standard 18's, not much to worry about.

Don't forget the offset though of new your rims, 55 is standard and 45 is about the limit for legal. And I have said this until I am blue in the face but have the wheel test fitted before they fit tyres etc there are a heap of wheels that won't clear the front brake calipers on the CU2 (months of frustration makes me an expert).

Not really, the standard 18's are 235/45. The closest profile for a 19 is 40 or you can go down to a 35 but then the problem is finding a 98 load rating in a 35 profile.

I stuck to 18's didn't want to make the ride any harsher and the factory tyres are too expensive an item to muck around with.

Doosra, those wheels do look awesome but can you imagine the ride on those rubber bands. Also a 42 offset is illegal (at least in NSW as the track would increase by over 25 mm) and rolling a guard can be a risky business. Not a practical solution.

[denot]

I'm still wondering why CU2 need 98 load rate... the Accord Thai is a lot heavier than CU2 but only need 95... :confused:

I don't think it really needs a 98 load rating it is just that Honda Australia decided to spec both the 17' and 18' that way. The Acura in the States comes with 93 rated rubber as standard and the Accord (Euro) in the UK has 92's.

The problem now is that Australian laws say you can only replace a tyre with one load rated to at least the same rating as the lowest fitted to that model in Australia (i.e. 98).

Im pretty impressed with these new Yoko's though, grip seems the same, but the sidewalls are definately stiffer than the Yoko's. They are quieter too, and have deeper tread compound.

What offset? I have only ever seen them in 35 offset which would make you illegal. I doubt you would get them under the guards without rolling, you would be coming out 20mm in offset and a further quarter inch in wheel width.

If you are considering lowering you will need an engineers certificate, otherwise illegal in NSW.

It would look sick mate... shouldn't be a problem with the right offset.
Might need to roll the guards, but there is plenty of room under there.

TO: ALBII

im going to be completely very very.. and way tooo honest...

You used to own a silver euro... CL9... car itself is great. But from what i remember correctly.. u had BSA rims on. which i think looks like shit on the car.
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h86/Albii/Picture345.jpg

Now u upgraded yourself to a brand new Euro CU2, and congrats cause it won wheels car of the year. But seriously... the wheels you have on now is a piece of shit.

Conclusion
U have great taste in cars but U have no taste on wheels, like you said on the other thread, http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=119753&page=2
"To me ,throwing $5000 wheels at a in your case $15,000 car isn't justifiable.
And if you think it makes your car worth any more ,think again."

Now if i was to change your words.. that $5000 wheels is any of WORK, RAYS, ENKEI wheels in 19 or 20inch. and that $15,000 car you were referring to was an Accord Luxury 2004 which brand new cost about $40,000.

Lets change ur setence so that it makes more sense why people spend big money on wheels.

"To me, throwing a 19inch WORK Wheels at a in your case an Accord Luxury isnt justifiable. And if you think it makes your car worth anymore, think again"

Here my version of what i think about cheap wheels on Wheels car of the year.

"To me, throwing a poor quality, heavy ass wheels at a in your case CU2 'Wheels car of the year' is just such a waste. If CU2 came with wheels like you currently have on it would NOT HAVE WON Wheels COTY
And if you still think that its not a waste... think again!"


and then tell me what was the honda euro built to compete with? ;)

You really are Type R Positive.. *in Borat's accent* "Capital R for Reeetaardation" only someone like Borat would compare a GS with a Euro and say that Euros is just as good... seriously, A euro would be the top of the range sedan Honda makes, and GS would be one of the top of the range sedan lexus makes. its only fair that you compare the 2 top of the line models from Lexus and Honda. Simply Euro and GS.

Ill tell you what the Honda euro was built to compete with, this was from the 2009 Honda Accord Euro CU2 review
"Premium mid-sized cars like the Ford Mondeo and Volkswagen Passat will compete against the new Accord Euro from Honda"
Now tell me which Honda car review did you read that states the Honda Euro was built to compete with Lexus IS or GS.?

Why compare price in the States which is on the other side of the country + maybe because the Yanks love their American Muscles and maybe that could be why the price of lexus there has dropped.
Why not compare price in Japan which is closer to home, the difference with Lexus GS and an Accord Euro.

Sorry just to make things clear.. i dont have problem with what ever wheels people put on their EUROS.... what ever tickles their fancy... not going to comment negative shit about it. I only have a problem with Albii's because he made a negative comment about putting quality wheels on a car regardless the price of the car...

[Rein]

wtf...
Dude , take a closer look at a second hand Lexus and a new Accord Euro....The Lexus is wholloped in all areas.
Actually even better..Take a look at a new Lexus and new Accord Euro and the Lexus is still wholloped.

WTF...
Dude, take a closer look at a second hand Lexus GS and a the New Accord Euro. The Euro is wholloped in all areas.

Heres a link to a detailed Spec of the Lexus GS and please tell me in which area the Euro is better in.
http://www.lexus.com/models/GS/detailed_specifications.html

So ALBII please tell me... actually dont tell me... because you obviously dont know how to review a car. Please ALBII give us A LINK to a website, a car review between the EURO and the Lexus GS which states that the EURO WHOLLOPES the Lexus In all areas. Because its only fair if you compare one the top of the line Sedans from each car make. in this case EURO VS GS. or LEGEND VS ES

And for your information.. The Lexus that [IV 23 VI] would rather get than the new euro is a Lexus GS. Correction [IV 23 VI] is selling his accord and IS GETTING A Lexus GS.

G36, not GS. ;) Who said GS? :confused: Makes your rant kind of pointless...... :thumbdwn:

Why compare prices in the states? It is a better indication of car comparison than Australia.

keep it AUDM no USDM lol

keep it AUDM no USDM lol
yeah, I know, but same car in different market, with same spec level shows you what the euro is truely competing with.

AUDM we miss out on most cars, and the ones we do get are soooo overpriced. IS250 case point. Go drive one. See for yourself. Makes the Euro even more special. ;)

Pricing for starters:
$80990 IS250 sports luxury AT
$48290 Euro lux navi AT

[RiceMeister]

Accord euro are a great VALUE luxury car, but you can't say with complete conviction that they're anything to be compared with a IS250. yes, both cars are seemingly similar, but are aimed at completely different markets. hence why you see 30 cu2/cl7/cl9 on the roads everyday and a lot less IS250.

both cars are not within the same price bracket for a reason. fact.

in terms of wheels, i agree with Rein, wheels for cars should be price relevant. for instance if you've bought a brand new $45K + car like the CU2 does it really do it justice to throw cheap wheels and tyres on? if anything you've reduced the quality of the car in doing so. spending 2K on wheels and tyres for myself for instance as I drive a 2000 Accord is more feasible as my car is only worth sub 11K.

would love to see a IS250/GS/G36 vs Accord Euro comparison to back up some of the previous statements.

carry on... just my 2 cents :)

Everywhere else, they're the same price LOL! FACT! :p
$31k for the IS250 in the states vs $32k for the TSX tech pack.

Now, tell me is the IS250 worth $30k more here than our Euro?

if u just replaced the euro's I wouldnt bother buying wheels yet unless u can get them at a steal..

ALso load rating 98 on a 245/19 tyre maybe hard to find.. probably be a high end tyre

TO REIN....only posting this as you are such a tough guy on the internet.
Rein ,get over yourself..
You put a set of wheels and some suspension on your car and think you and all you stand for makes sense and nothing else..
Heres something for you to consider..
Your car has 130,000 km on it..Yes you've driven around the world a couple of times..
By this stage your car should have had some extensive panel work as well as some sort of engine and auto trans issue.
Get over it . Just because a couple of 20 yo tell you your car is awesome doesn't mean it ACTUALLY is...What i would like to honestly know is how many smartarse remarks have been thrown your way whilst driving your christmas tree? LOL black roof..
Your car may appeal to the pre puberty era , but that doesnt mean it appeals to everyone.
YOUR car looks CRAP, is too low and has stupid camber that just screams WANK.
Why don't you take a leaf out of Chris f book and act like a mature enthusiast rather than a little wanker.
Have you seen Chris fs euro...Personally shits all over yours but he doesnt go posting pics and bites everytime someone makes a negative comment about his car..Why? cos he don't care and has a lote more maturity than you could ever dream about.
If you think your cars the shit, that's great, cos i think its just shit with sooo many add ons to try hide the fact its getting old.
While your cruising in your 6 yo car with 130,000 kms on it and your vip wannabe boy racer spec car, the guy in the brand new 09 CU2 with wheels not as good as yours is laughing at you cos for one..You should have bought an EVO. Or 2 ..you should have bought a manual....loooooooool

Yeah , i thought the same thing till i drove it...the gulf in refinement and overall build and quality is quite noticable.
Btw, some people who bought the 03 to 08 euro may be using it as a stepping stone in their car life and have moved on to bigger and better things post euro.
If i didn't have property a bike and a work truck to worry about, i may have done that also, but the CU2 is hard to pass up for the money..makes the 320i ,A4 and c200 seem overpriced.
Also ATJO...The CL9 and CU2 have 2 totally different looks..CL9 more sporty 4 door as opposed to CU2 more classy.

Oh trust me I was consistently whinging to them but all I could do was wait for the fix. It just got too much, I didnt buy a new car to have a pinging sound.

Like I sed, where's mods when you need one? Time to get more new mods that bothered with keeping a good thread clean?

[spastic]

mods dont bother cleaning up threads no more its too much effort. All they are good for these days is closing/deleting threads and infracting members.

I myself am a big fan of the cu2 there was a member on here who put a lip kit on it? i thought it looked tough as.

hey guys

a mate of mine put 20" 8.5 on his cu2 lux offset +35
he wants to put h&r's on them
i said he needs to roll his gaurds or get a more conservative drop like eibachs
i said if he puts h&r's on them they will be some scrubbing issues
just need someone else's opinion
i have never rolled my guards so how much would he be looking at?
