what year car, model, trim do u have ?

what size tire and bolt pattern are the accord wheels ?

if u have a 00 and below civic/ integra then i agree w/ yer fren.. 17 " may be a lil bit too big.

The tires are too big and will rub.

I wouldn't get 17" wheels for a '92 Civic. The problem is that even 205/40-17, the smallest 17" size commonly available, is too big for your car. Stick with 16" (with 205/40-16 tires) or 15" (with 195/50-15 tires).

You can get the Kumho SPT in 205/40-16.
