[Kielan]

For sure wheels can make this.

[schroedin]

Love the new Accord coupes, do it up right!

[sofieeegee]

thanks.... yea i deff need wheels im not sure which ones im gona get tho im lookin at a few different ones

[abest521]

id say go with some works if you got the cash. if not go with rota wheels.

I wonder how te37s in white would look on this.. if not you can never go wrong with aggresive meisters :D

[godspeed]

Meisters would look dope but 19's look weak on the coupe - FTL!

[Oxer]

Wheels will deffinately have to be of japanese origin... Weds Kranze is my suggestion.

Looks awesome.

[Checho]

I'd drop some SSR MS1's on that Accord :D Or maybe some SP1's/Meisters

[nght&day]

Meisters would look dope but 19's look weak on the coupe - FTL!

19"s + the right drop = ;)

thanks i wanted to go 20's but i still want to have that slammed look where im almost on the floor.... so 19's was the next best thing

[MKV_Fresh]

in.
cant wait to see wheel selection, post of some pics of the wheels you have in mind

[nght&day]

Going from 20's to 19's will only raise the car half an inch. But i still say do 19's and do meisters but with the size of the rear fenders on these accords its got to be with an aggresive offset it you wanna pull it off nice.

[geoffafa]

no Meister talk here! kbai

;)

Needs to be 20's on the coupe - 19's slammed looks retarded IMO and you're right about the aggressive offsets. :cool

[mystick6]

^19's FTW>>> The more dump the better....

[godspeed]

Yes, 19's FTW on Sedans.:shifty

yea i plan on doing staggered in the back which will make it look amazing. I do really want to have to roll fender with 20's.... iduno i rather 19's and pretty much be on the floor.... if i could go lower than what i am now i would but then i cant get outa my driveway

[godspeed]

Well, what's your budget first for the wheels? lol

[nght&day]

problem solved ;)

[sofieeegee]

under $1500 hopefully if not then under $2000

[joshg214]

nice!! i got the same ride im tryin to build for my chick.. dont wanna go to much on the wheels cuzi know how she likes to drive but 19s sound good!!

[SD202]

looks good so far ! any ideas on what wheels you wanna get ?

[eddie95sl2]

get some rotiforms on it..... i love this accord

[244Brick]

Idk how aggressive you'll he able to get with a 1500 budget.. 19" with good offset is hard to find under 2k

But gl.. Look on forums u might find someone in need of cash.... Or just buy my 92 Accord and stance it :shifty lol
