HFP rims

[Gruszka530]

Would 17" HFP rims fit on an 2001 Accord 4DR V6? I have new tokico HP struts installed. I tried TL rims but they stuck out too much

i think he's more concerned about the wheels sticking out past the fender/quarter panel

in that case, even more yes...

the TL wheels sit pretty perfect on our cars too. when youre at stock height, they may look like they stick out a little, but when youre lowered, you can really see that they sit pretty even.

these civic HFP wheels would sit a little in the fender, but with a 215/45 tire they should be fine.

also, what suspension are you running Gruszka530? you said tokico HP's, but do you have any drop springs or coilover sleeves on them? or do you just have them with the stock springs?

 

[Gruszka530]

i have stock springs right now but plan on getting the Tein S. Tech lowering springs. Im worried about the rear being lowering than the front b/c i got 2 10's in the trunk and sometimes carry passengers. I want the bronze HFPs cause i think they will look good on a white accord.

yea, the bronze would def look good dude. if youre worried about the "saggy rear" then you should look into a coilover sleeve, so you can have it sitting good. the skunk2's are pretty affordable, and offer a decent amount of drop. theres been a couple members here that have had the skunk2's with the tokico hps. jmillerf23a1 currently is running that set up too.

 

[Gruszka530]

thanks sketch... i will look into that setup

alright so i guy locally is selling brand new bronze 17" HFP rims with michelin tires for $1300. Is this a good deal?

 

[dynasty]

truthfully, i rather go for an aftermarket wheels for $1300. some people would sell their Works wheels for $1300 for a set of rims, no tires. but that's just me.

 

[Gruszka530]

yea i just found some subzeros locally, I think ill pick them up since i dont have as much $ cause tranny broke and some other things
