i would get metal wheels....stay away from wood, they tend to shatter at high speeds. for sizes, id go with something between a foot and a foot and a half, much smaller and the car wont roll, much bigger and the car wont roll.

no year
no trim

no help

It's ok,he's from a place in Michigan I've never heard of.


Most Accords: 16's are the best, 17's are the biggest i'd suggest. 03 up: 18's-19's.

16s are good and wont affect accel much at all and still look good, 17s look really damn nice on accords but can affect your accel a little more than most, and going 18s and higher on 90s models is just too much..

Only if you change the overall diameter of the tire.
