Not sure what 8balls are? But I'm assuming you mean wheels since you're asking about tire sizes.

Stocks are 195/65/15 ? Might be 195/60 if you have EX Alloy's on a CD chassis.

You can put in the original tire size and the ones you are considering and see what it will do in terms of your speedometer, etc.

*edit* And the reason I mention stocks is because of ride comfort, etc.

On my ITR wheels I had 205/50/15 which was a 15x6.5" wheel.



Hard to see but give you an idea of what 205/50 looks like

you see the accord next to yours.. the rims that he has on are the 8balls..the stock EX rims.. i painted them bronze and im trying to make them look decent.. so should i go 205/50/15? how will it effect the ride and speed? im on 17s right now.. i can probably chirp third alot harder on 15s

Different years/models/versions/engines Accord use different tire sizes.

Tell us what yours is (what year, sedan or coupe or wagon, EX or LX etc, 4 cyl or V6) so we can answer your question.

Also - stickied at the top of this forum is a topic called

Forum Rules and FAQ - READ BEFORE POSTING

It says:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Forum Rules and FAQ - READ BEFORE POSTING &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">
<FONT SIZE="4">Rules</FONT>

4. When starting a topic, make the title specific enough that people scanning the list of forum topics will know what's inside. "Need help" or "have a question" are not specific enough. We will rename threads in ways that you might not like. If you violate this rule, we will call you a clueless tool who didn't bother reading the FAQ topic stickied at the top of this forum.
</TD></TR></TABLE>

Which is why it's been changed from "NEED HELPP!!!". You clueless tool.
