Default Drilling rims

I've got a set of 17" rims that haven't been drilled and I was wondering if anyone knows the measurement of the lug thread so I can drill that size into the rim.

depends on what year accord you're putting them on. i'm pretty sure engine size matters on the 95 and up.

exactly....this is not an easy job. you will need 4 holes. They need to have EXACTLY 114.3mm distance from center to center and they also need to be equidstant from the direct center of the wheel. i would think they only way to do this would be on a cnc machine and have a computer program for it. there's no way you could just lay off the holes and drill them by hand or in a drill press.
