I like those in polished or white, german touring car style!

They will fit your car. Find some cheap on craigslist!

Damn, those look good.


My opinion would be talk to Opossum Jenkins and see what he has in stock for 4x100.

There are lots of used 15x6 wheels from Integras (GS-R and Special Edition) that are inexpensive and should fit your car. Check the marketplace forums.

You'll need 195/50-15 tires. (If you get wheels which already have 195/55-15 or 205/50-15 tires, you can use them up; just get 195/50-15 when you need to replace them.)

If you get 14" wheels for your car, you need tire size 185/60-14.

those arent accord wheels. PM 408wdy, that's his car you posted.


these are 4x114 accord wheels:



the wheels you are interested in look more like these RONAL's (besides the centers) ...

we stumped the rim bully.


yes, the earlier accord wheels are 4x100. but the wheels up there are definitely not what you just posted.

lol..yeah you are right.. the accord wheels have the twisted lines at the edges unlike the straight lines at the end of 408wdy's wheels. i will find the name yeah i confess.. i am pretty stumped, hmm..

i was thinking the old zender turbos or those old linea circuit wheels i had...hmm....maybe even some 14" or 15"hart dspecs?
