Hey guys,

I bought a 2003 Acord EX last month. In the very near future I would like to buy some after market wheels and tires. Here are the specs for my Accord:

Bolt Patter: 5x114.3
OEM Offset: +55
Thread Size: 12x1.50
OEM Hex: 19mm
Hub Ring: 61.4

The name brand is not important at the moment. What I'm most concered about is the size & width of the wheels and tires. I'd like to go with some 17" or 18" wheels that are sort of wide (maybe 225 or 215). My question is what wheel width & tires size(s) would give me the "cleanest" look? Let me elaborate.

1. I want to minimize the gap between the top of the tire and the wheel well, but also have enough clearance so the tires do not rub while driving over speed bumps and thing of that nature.
2. I do not want the wheels or tires to stick out further than the car or wheel wells.
3. I do not want the tires so wide that they hit or rub the fender walls while turning.

Any help you guys can offer would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,
Sonny
