Default Accord V6 steelies fit on the R?

anyone know if the Accord V6 steelies, 15X6.5, fit the R? Im pretty sure the bolt pattern is the same, but not sure about the offset. I picked up a set for $20 but dont have tires so I cant test them out, and I dont really wanna waste money on tires if the offset is wrong. The wheel doesnt say the offset anywhere on it like the R wheels do. surprisingly, they dont feel that much heavier than the R wheel and seem like they might make a decent track wheel. If they fit Im gonna paint them chrome y0! Thx

you should spray paint them black, put them on the front only, and then put some 18s for the back, to complete the effect.

heres a couple reasons....maybe a set of drag wheels since they are wider and would allow wider tires and better traction. or maybe just an extra set for the snow. or maybe even just to have a full size spare. for $20 why not?

I wouldn't use steelies to drag...just too heavy.

thats what I thought too...until I compared them. my "arm scale" tells me that they arent that much heavier. and being able to use a wider tire it may be worth it who knows. Im gonna try to weigh them tomorrow to get definite numbers.
