Default 16" wheels?

Hi! Newbie here. First post.

Bought an '00 Accord EX sedan last week. It has a rear wing and body side "skirts" (or whatever you call them) which are I guess dealer-installed options.

Anyway the 15" tires are pretty much worn out and I was playing with the idea of going to 16" rims and tires. The stock alloy rims are in less than stellar shape but otherwise ok. Can these rims be polished and scratches removed and if so who does this kind of work? I guess I'm mainly looking for appearance and I don't want to affect the performance and handling too much. Will factory 16" rims from another Honda/Acura work (is there such a thing)?

Sorry to sound kind of ignorant here but this is my first Honda. I'm absolutely a Honda convert (why didn't I ever own them before?) but I know next to nothing about them and have been "cramming" on the 'net for the past week to learn as much as I can.

You do not say if you have a V6 or a I4.......

5x114 for V6
4x114 for I4

Most Hondas have those sizing with the exception of the Integras, Civics, older models, etc which are 4x100. Just find a wheel with those sizes.

And yes just go through the phone book or search for a wheel refinisher.
