hey all Im about to put the 17x9.5 + 12 shoes on. Im picking up 215/45/17 tires for it. im trying to see how much fender rolling i would have to do on a 01 honda accord coupe. ive searched all over. Since this is a rare setup, its hard to find good answers! thanks

has anyone ever seen these wheels on our cars?

Cheers

 

I haven't seen this setup before. But as someone who has researched and done stance before. I can tell you that you will need lots of camber and fender pulling on a Honda to get that offset and width on the car.

 

thats a horrible tire size to have on wheels that wide.

 

Yea do 205/40/17

 

205? Seriously? To the OP: you will need at least 245 on those wheels.

 

SO BRAVE

 

Sounds like he's going for that super-strechhhh look .
You should consult the fine folks over at honda society, they have got the Accord hella flush doctrine well covered.

 

I think you meant to say...


I thought this Euro trash white rice 'customizing' crap died in '96.


Poor five door. That thing must ride like ***.

 

this^

you may get flamed for going with rotas though.

as far as rolling and camber, you will need to pull and roll and have a good bit of camber. best way to tell is to jack up the car, remove one wheel and mount the new wheel w/o tires and then compress the suspension to see about fitment. from then on it is a matter of trial and error

ps. you need to search more because that wheel size is not as uncommon as you think
