Picture request: 2003-04 Accords with OEM rims from other models...
Hey guys... I've been kind of browsing for a '03-'04 Accord LX, because they are nice enough and you can get a decent deal on them. They come with the steel wheels with plastic covers. If I did get one I would like to replace the stock rims with an OEM 5 lug Honda rum... CRV, Prelude, ITR... etc.
Was just wondering if there were any users who have done this and have pics.. please post them if you do. Thanks

The Acura TL wheels are very cheap and very available.
17x8 +45 is also about the widest you can get under the fenders without trouble.
This is a 2006 HFP Coupe, but your car wouldn't look all that different.

How big of tires can you fit on those George? The all season 215 mm no-name tires that came on mine will chirp with a slightly quicker clutch slip than normal in first 
so tires or rims w/tires will be one of the first things to be done.

I'm using 235-45-17. The wheels will fit bigger, but be careful going bigger than my 235's if you are on HFP suspension or some kind of lowered suspension.

Re: Re: (George Knighton)
I've always wanted to put the wheels that come on the run-flat Odysseys, not for the run-flats, but simpy because I love the way they look. I have no idea if they would fit or not...

I think the run-flat cars are 5x120, aren't they? Like the RL?

Yeah, I think you're right. Is your car lowered at all? I like the look of those TL wheels. Are those your original center caps? Looks like you can get takeoff TL wheels and tires for less than a good set of tires only.

The car was on an HFP OEM suspension when the pictures were taken, so it's lowered to whatever spec HFP lowers to!
You can take your "H" centre caps off of the 6-6 wheels and put them right onto the TL wheels.
