I have a 99 4dr Accord. I'm gonna buy some rims today they are 18x7.5 w/ 255/40/18 Sumitomo rubber. WILL THEY RUB WHEN I TURN? I've heard they will and they won't: I need facts plz!!, so I can relax.

 

my boy got some 18 X 7.5 on an 01 v6..... dont know what size tires, they dont rub when he turns, but the back ones rub when he goes over any bump

 

is your car lowered? if it isnt then you shouldnt worry..actually i take that back...it MIGHT rub the first couple turns but after that it wont..my car is dropped with 18's and i dont run...have fun with them!!

 

No it's not lowered so I should be alright.

Thanks for your advice.

THEY'RE FINALLY ON! They don't rub, I love it

I think I might invest in some lowering components. It looks like I could go at least an inch lower. Any suggestions would help.

My advice is to call them wheels not rims.

 

WTF? I actually just read this. You fit 255/40-18 inch rubber on your Accord?

 

Thanks for the sarcasm. I seemed to get the point across. I posted this in cosmetics first cuz I thought you guys would get pissed, anyways that is the title I used in that Forum it seemed fitting.

 

Easy and still have room to play with!

 

You sure it's not a 225/40-18, not a 255/40-18?

 

My mistake they're 225/40
