I dont see why not, they are generic honda offset, not too wide or anything.

As long as the car isnt sitting very very low.

Find out what others have put on then use this calculator to compare

Cheers mate.. the car is sitting at its stock height.. so

On second thoughts I dont think im willing to spend so much on rims for my car just yet but I wouldnt mind getting some of these (http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid93/pc219f8f73ec3f3bf0ace1568f541e41f/fa40e1e8.jpg) if possible.. Are they whole wheels or hub caps?
And if possible how much?

Cheers,
Scott

these are alloy wheels with the big centre cap from your model accord but on the more "upper model" variants. Since they are old and stock, I wouldnt be paying more than $200 max.

[scott1e]

So they are whole wheels, as opposed to jus hub caps.. Where abouts can I get them and what to do to install them/where can I get them installed (im not confident on this one :P)

[SiReal]

well firstly, u have to be able to find a set. Whereabouts, god knows because they aren't very common...Maybe go to your bob janes or tyre shops, because they ususlaly take in the old rims when ppl upgrade or just put a WTB ad in. i'm sure there are many like yourself on OH with those rims.

Installing them are *piss* easy. mind my french. just get tyres put on them at your local tyre shop, hell, they can even put em on for you. Ever changed a tyre on a car? well imageine that x 4.

Good luck with the find. will be a hard one to be honest. Patience is a virtual :)

OF COURSE IVE CHANGED A TYRE!! WHAT DO YOU TAKE ME FOR? SOME KIND OF KNOW.... NOTHING!!!

Haha jokes mate.. Cheers for that... Yer the tyres I have atm are on my stock wheels which are covered by a dodgy plastic face cap.. Quite ugly really (specially as the paint is only half on)

Ill go check out Bob Jane at Drummoyne..

And you reckon I would pay no more than $200... How much would installation cost.. Ive never actually removed a tyre from a wheel so thats the difference :|

[SiReal]

ohh...sorry dont mean to offend. hehe.. they can do the tyre swap for you. unless u have the tyre swapping device at home which you probably dont (99% of ppl probably dont) hehe....

well good luck with the find. wil be hard...shouldnt set u more than $50 max.

[scott1e]

Goodo..

If I chuck up a WTB add, what do I call these rims? Lol

[SiReal]

just call them accord rims 89 - 93 i think and whack on a picture.

[scott1e]

thread looks pretty sitting there in the WTB forum :)

Do not go to Bob Jane Drummonye. I had my mags put on their and it took them 1 and a half hours just to put them on. They said it would take 30mins! Go to their shop in Habberfield - alot better plus they do better deals.
