Default 2011 Accord

i have a 2011 Accord V6 Coupe. I want to get a set of rims and tires but I'm not to confident in picking an offset and everything else thats involved. Could someone share some knowledge and assist me in picking a set. thank you

We already have a significant knowledgebase for the terminology used when looking at wheels and tires in the FAQ's: https://honda-tech.com/forums/wheel-tire-56/9658-forum-rules-faq-read-before-posting-1188922/

As for your specific car, you may want to mention what goals you have for the car. Is it going to be a street-only car, are you going for a "low offset" trendy look or a performance setup, is the car lowered, are you willing to do modifications to increase wheel/tire clearance...

Please be more specific when asking questions here.

poke, sunk, tucked, track, conservative, big, traditional. gotta throw us a bone here.

are you just wanting to put some 22"s on your accord? or did you get stuck with an oem steel wheel and find it ugly?

are you lowering the car, and then how low are you going to go? are you going to lower it at all?

pick a diameter. everything else will have to be determined from here.

Why are you wanting a 2" stagger on the car? Its a FWD car, so I can't see the reasoning behind putting a taller wheel in the back. Especially not a 2" stagger.

90% chance your abs/tcs/etc will HATE this. and there-by cause you to hate your wheels equally as much.
