Default Are these OEM Accord Wheels

Do these wheels come off an accord, if so what year. Wanna see how these would look on the eg. Alot of people put corvette sawblades on other cars and these kinda look like them.

Yep, 4th gens. Both the 4th gen alloys, and the 5th gen alloys share the same center caps. 4x114.3 so they won't fit on your Civic without adapters.

The listing said they were 4x100? Hmmm I'm curious now.

they are 4x100 so they will bolt on to a civic hub. sounds like what NZXTInerTia is saying is that they have a larger center pilot hole so you would need centering rings.

I do not recognize those as Accord rims...4th or 5th gen anyway. They could be very early 2nd 3rd gen Accord or Prelude rims. Ether way, if they are 4x100 as listed, they will fit a Civic.

OP, make note that they are directional. Those vents in the rim have a purpose. The letters R & L designate what side of the vehicle they are to be mounted.

I've see a few people with OEM directional rims on backwards. If you buy them make sure that if you have directional tires they are mounted in the proper orientation in correlation with the rim.

Yes more than less, cooling the brakes are probably their primary purpose. Some wheels are actually designed to increase gas mileage too.

Please tell me you use the bike rack for logical purposes? I cycle myself and would like to get a roof rack for my Lancer. lol Otherwise she looks really clean, those 3rd gen wheels would look rad, stock classy if you get what I mean.

That's cool, I lived in Utah most of my life so I definitely got my mountain bike experience in. lol I have a Giant ATX760 with a lockable Fox front end, so I run Michelin mountain 17"s for dirt and Nashbar Streetwise 1" 17"s for pavement.

Out here in St. Louis, we just got hills, so nothing too extreme. Just got a trek 4300. Planning on transferring to California where the good trails are at. My uncle brought me to some famous trail that was a 2 hour climb which killed me, being my first time. It was somewhere in Thousand Oaks California.
