I'm completely serious when I say this. 16x7.5 wheel will not look cool or flush. I'd rather people roll on stocks and save for something better than try and work with next-to-nothing budgets.

You drive an Accord, not a Civic. The parts for this car aren't even expensive anymore.

+1

if you have cash saved up no just keep saving for wider wheels . i agree with sleeper a 16x7.5 is pointless. i posted a cg on 16x8.5s on here a few pages back. thats the LEAST i would do. but youd have to be pretty damn low.

Well it'll be a while before I get the wheels I want. I've had these sitting my house for a while now and finally got some tires for it(tires on the stock rims were dry rotting). Just I put these on after I found some good tires for them. If I get any other rims it'll be some Grid Offroads in 16x8s with a +10 offset. That's about it. Well all that's affordable. Lol.

In this economy I'm not too worried about spending $1200 on a set of wheels alone to make my car look good. I've made my previous rodes look good and this will too. The least ill do if I get the cash is get some XXRs. But I haven't a clue as to which ones to get. Lol

Ill make it work. Don't you worry. Lol. I always have. I always will. But hey. You're always welcome to send me $1400 and ill be sure to buy a set that'll appease the 6th Gen masses....:)

I understand this will be a temporary thing and one thing is better nothing. At least you are trying which is cool. But hopefully you'll chage your set-up in the near future. But good luck to you.
Btw, your picture isn't showing up.

^Correct, unsure of offset

No. Just...no. Don't run a staggered like that. It's not a drag.

Oh it'll change in the future. Just right now im trying to buy a ring for the girl and get some cash in the bank. Thanks for comments tho. Ill be sure to pull these off nicely. And stupid pic. Figured it wouldn't work. I'm posting from my phone. My stupid computer got a virus....ugh.....

And as far as the staggered fitment thing.....only the RWD cars need to run staggered fitments. That's just me tho.

I'm going with 17x9 RPF1's at 35 offset for SCCA. I've also been talking with NightHawk over at v6p.net and he has recommended that I run a bigger wheel up front so I can run 255's and 225's out back.

Why not? He needs better traction on the front.

well it depends on what he means by bigger wheel lol.
imo, 18 up front & 17 in rear is gay as fawk.
But if he just goes wider up front that makes more since.
Or is he just saying bigger wheel (tire) up front?
