Fitment Question

[chaseamundo]

I have a 1995 honda accord coupe. I wonder if 17X8 Wheels with a 35 offset would be pushing it, or if i should stick with 17X7 with a 40 offset and attempt wheel spacers. im still learning about fitment and all so any comments or advice would be great.... Reps....:goodjob:

depending on the offset, but id do 17x8 , 8" wheels doesnt seem too much of a task on a accord.. the offset is gonna make or break it tho.

[chaseamundo]

OH DAMN lol. 35 offset i forgot to post that

What's your current set-up?

[chaseamundo]

Currently i have Ksport 36 way adjustable coilovers. thats it as far as suspension. and idk what wheels to get. that is my dilemma lol

offset is kind of high, but im not familiar with the fitment on the accord, i think gabes kind of low, but he has 16s. what kind of wheel is it?

you may need to get a cambe rkit to be safe, but with that 16x8 and a 35 offset i dont see that being too hard to fit, the question is will it be enough!

[chaseamundo]

16x8 or 17x8?
and what do you mean will it be enough?

i think 17 would be better for an accord, if your trying to get it flush thats what i mean by enough.. or you just want it to be good enough

[chaseamundo]

well if its not "enough" i could use spacers to make the difference right?

oh and we are referring to the 17X8 not X7 ....?

yea you can, but if your gonna buy them new id go for the 17x9 ones.. the money u spend on spacer, you can spend that on a wider wheel!

[chaseamundo]

my only worry is my front wheels .....being able to turn the wheel haha

What abouts 16X8

NO LOL. I would lower it first then check the fitment first, cuz lowering your ride you will see the difference in room you will get then purchase the rim. Going w/ a 8" rim would just increase the weight, you could basically run the same width tire on a 7" to 8" tire unless you have a RWD car and wanting to run fatties in the back lol which in an Accord you dont have that option. I would lower your car first then upgrade the rims second.

ok man, i see what your sayin, ima go ahead and put on suspension then
