You will need to use a 7~8" wide rim. Being that you have an Accord, you can't use Lenso's since they only come in 4x100 bolt pattern. Best bet would be a set of Bogart's or Weld's. Also, depending on the horsepower you are putting down, you may want to look at using a larger size slick.

A pair of Bogarts will usually run anywhere from $450-$600+ depending on the size and style that you want. If you are getting them brand new, be prepared for a wait, as they are made to order. In fact, I'm still waiting on a set that I ordered back in January. As for slicks, everyone has their own personal preference. For me, I've only used M&H slicks since I've been racing. I've had good performance with them, plus their customer service is top notch.
