Default 2000 Accord Coupe....Will it rub?

Will 19x8 or 19x8.5 fit flush with the wheel well on a 2000 accord coupe or does it poke out? I just need input from people currently riding on 19's with the accord and the good and bad views. The selection for 19x7 rims suck..so thats why, i am asking this question.

Thanks for the input

It not only depends on the width of the wheel, but also the offset of the wheel, the width of the tire, and the amount of negavite camber you have. 8.0 is gonna be as wide as you want, and a higher offset, and more negative camber will all help prevent rubbing. Sorry I don't have a definitive answer, but that might help.

I have 18x7.5" on my Accord coupe with a +42 offset and 225-40-18 tires, This is insanely tight (close fit) to have full suspension travel.

Do you live in the land of no potholes? Running 19's is going to give you a 30 or 35 profile tire. Drive careful, best of luck.
