I going to get some rims, but I never got rims before. So, I have no idea about the size and stuff. I can read about it all day, but I still need some expert advice, because rims are a lot of money.

So, I am deciding on getting some esr sr03.

I like mesh style rims and also the lip part.
I am deciding on getting the gold rims as well.
My car is fire pepper red as well.

Anyways, I need some help on the size and stuff.

I am thinking about getting 17's. My car is lowered. I think it is a 1 finger gap all around, but a little lower in the front.

Here are the specs:

Diameter | Width | Offset | Bolt Patterns | Center Bore | Finishes | Lip Sizes (in)

17x8.5 +30 / 5x114.3 / 73.1 / Gold-Hyper silver-Hyper Black-Black-White w/ Machine Lip / 2.5 inch

17x8.5 +30 / 5x120 / 72.6 / Gold-Hyper silver-Hyper Black-Black-White w/ Machine Lip / 2.5 inch

17x8.5 +30 / 5x100 / 73.1 / Gold-Hyper silver-Hyper Black-Black-White w/ Machine Lip / 2.5 inch

17x9.5 +20 / 5x114.3 / 73.1 / Gold-Hyper silver-Hyper Black-Black-White w/ Machine Lip / 3 inch

17x9.5 +20 / 5x120 / 72.6 / Gold-Hyper silver-Hyper Black-Black-White w/ Machine Lip / 3 inch

17x9.5 +20 / 5x100 / 73.1 / Gold-Hyper silver-Hyper Black-Black-White w/ Machine Lip / 3 inch


Which one do I get?

What kind of fitment do you want? All that is honestly personal preference. We have a Wheel Fitment thread about all of this.

I took a look at the thread. It was overwhelming at first, but I look through a couple of the pages.

Basically, I just want a good clean look. I do not want to roll the fenders or anything like that. I do prefer for the edge of the rim to be lined up with the fender and have the tire stretch out to it. I think that might be a good look. But what I want is for the rims to look like there outside of the fenders, because I do not like how rims look like on this car when the rims are inside of the fenders. I think it look weird.

Look at the wheel bolt patterns. Yours is a V6, right? Accord V6's wheel bolt pattern is 5x114.3

Unless you won't change your wheel bearing hubs' pattern to 5x100 or 120, you won't have any other choices but those two.

Thanks for the info :). Yeah, it is an Accord v6 2001.

Does this specific tire spec look nice or match for what I am going for?
