Wheel Offset

bex · Sep 4, 2006

Looking at the offerings for the 4-Lug model Accord, I noticed these numbers for the wheels listed on Discounttire.com

7X7 4-100/114.3 40SM

Is the 40SM the wheel offset and color?

Here is the url for the particular wheel referenced.

Any assistance would be great because how I understand it from reading the forums, I should be looking for a 42 offset for a 6th gen accord.

Thanks for your time.

40 is the offset. i think thatd be pushing it, i personally would go lower then 42 on the offset. my rims are 42 and they used to rub in the back, and they still do if i hit a good enough bump. my 7.5" wide rims with a 215 wide tire and a 42 offset, sit pretty flush with the fenders. you can see it in these pics:

yeah i wouldn't go any lower than 42... i had +42 rims and even they rubbed occasionally like sketch said.

You sedan guys and your rubbing. 42 or 40mm offest for me, with 225 tires.

yeah it's 4x114.3..I think i'm running a +45 18x7.5 on mine not 100% sure on the offset i'll double check

Im at +42mm, and it's a squeeze. It's going to rub when I drop.
