Euro - What wheels? Offset etc?

[davidrotheray]

Hey guys, new here, did a quick search and didnt seem to find much. I have been looking at wheels for Accord Euro, but not sure what ones fit?

According to the TempeTyres site, using the wheel wizard, Accord Euro's are 5x114.3 +40?

Are those the right specs to use?

The mugen rims for the Euro are +48. So i guess anything in between should work.

[davidrotheray]

soo, between +40 and +48? would be better to get more towards the 48 end then the 40 end wouldnt it?

Yeah, higher offeset like above +42 to +55 is usually the range most Euro owners look at. +40 may be a tad low, but around +45 should be safe. I know some other Euro owners that run +35 and stuff. Which require rolling guards coz the wheel sorta sticks out and isnt flush with the guard, making it look like lol.

ahhh ok cool, well if it helps Im looking at 20" (and NO not chrome)

well it is it +40, thats better then +35, so might be able to get away with a camber kit yeah?

OEM rims are +55.My rims are +48.+45-+55 is the ideal range.

[davidrotheray]

no more then 8.5 wide?

is there any other shops on the net that have a nice big gallery for me to browse through?

[TRaNz]

no more than 8.5 wide ay?
Yeah get above +45 to be safe.
If its lower than that your wheels might stick out past the guard.

im running +42 offset and it sits flush with the guards on the front and about 1cm in from the rear guard.

camber kits should be fine i would think, but too much and you'll be replacing tyres every 3 months.

[davidrotheray]

well if +42 sits flush at the front, +40 would stick out maybe...1cm or so?

so either way getting the guards rolled would probably have to be done.

I'll have a look around and see what other rims I can find that I like with at least a +42 or better offset. If not i guess I'll just have to roll the guards and camber kit it

thx for your help guys

Again guys, what size liquorice strips fit on 20" wheel??? Glad you're not into chrome at least!
