17.5" wide rims won't fit at all

7.5" rims will be tight - and will likely rub the rear LCA's

7" needs 50 mm offset. 40mm offset will likely rub the body/fender at 7.5".

You can't go wider than 215 section width

I'm sorry, but aren't these the kind of questions you should have been asking BEFORE you bought the wheels for a ton of cash? What exactly are schools teaching these days...

Try the Prelude Forum, they sound ideal for a 5th Gen 'lude

5th gen Lude takes even higher offset than ITR (55mm stock). They would be rub-o-rama on a Lude. They might fit a GS300 or GS400? Not sure.

I have 16*7.5 and they fit perfectly with 45mm offset. They are currently for sale, if anyone is looking for rims. Advan RG custom painted kaiser silver (ITR gunmetal).



17.5" wide rims won't fit at all

7.5" rims will be tight - and will likely rub the rear LCA's

7" needs 50 mm offset. 40mm offset will likely rub the body/fender at 7.5".

My e-mail is dc2r@dushane.com. Yes they are real Advans. They were white with blue trim when I bougt them, but they didn't look right on my black car (see photo below). I had them color matched to the same gunmetal that the original wheels come with. They are in perfect shape, and I have about $2300 into them including the wheels themselves and the refinishing. Make me an offer...

I am hoping to get $1300 but I'll take the best offer to come in within the next couple weeks if I don't get that.
