Re: Need mod tips for my new 2006 Accord (xxaiphaxx)
 

The 17" rims on handaccessories.com look pretty good. They come with tires and already balanced. Don't come in chrome, but chrome is kind of going out of style lately. I think they put those rims on the cars they sell overseas. (I like the ones in the shaded green part of the page).$1600 for the whole package ready to bolt on. Can't beat that with a big stick. I will get some when the tires I have now wear out.

after tax + shipping 1850 was the price for those rims/tire package... nice wheels but a bit pricey in my opinion.

those are the ones your talking about right?

Need some advice! =[
can someone give me their opinion on what they think. I have an 05 Accord LX 4 cyl Silver. I was thinking about getting the motegi DP6 18" (is Motegi any good?). Do you guys think 18" is to big for my car (as opposed to 17"). Would u guys go with the gun metal color, chrome, or Hyper black?
Here is the link to the rims, they cost 520 (after shipping) for the gunmetal, and alittle more for the chrome/Hyper black. The different colors (chrome, gun metal, hyper black) is listed along the right side of this link:

Thanks for any help in advance.

Yes, that's the ones. I thought that was a pretty good price for wheels, tires, and lug-nuts ready to go. Have you priced Michelin tires lately? Any cheaper than that, and they will probably look cheap too. Know what I mean?

ya i hear u on that one... If you look around though, you can get used tires with several thousand miles on them for under 300.

i actually looked at the actual tire sizes. the tire size in the package deal is 215/50-17 v speed rated. my 2006 tire size is P215/50 R17 93V. i think i'm going to just buy the rims since my tires are perfectly fine. everything comes out to $791.55 for all four honda rims. anybody know the average price of rim installation?

Re: (xxaiphaxx)
 

Used tires? I don't think so.

Heck, I don't know that. Never really looked at the itemized list when I bought tires. Probably different at different places. Check around.

Re: (BLKFLSH)
 

what's that supposed to mean? my car is less than a month old and the tires are basically brand spankin new with no tread wear. who said i was buying used tires anyways?

i've been trying to say that the front lip from a 2005 won't fit! as you can see, the fog lights on a 2005 go in the middle grill, in front of the radiator. fog lights on the 2006 go where the newly designed black slots are. oh well...i can always wait 2 years for an aftermarket lip kit to come out...

I was replying to the other guy, not you, sorry. Last post on page one.

im leaning towards the moda r6 18" with the Pirelli PZero Nero M&S tires.
