My buddy installed them on is Lude '00 and had an offset issue, he had to order spacers. Check the offset vs. your stock rims. His rims hit his front brakes.
He had to order a 5mm spacer from H&R.

That's good to know. Also, I think the '00 Prelude and the '03 Accord have the same wheel offset. However, I'm not sure about possible differences in the brake calipers between the two cars. :dunno:

Why don't you look at the www.tirerack.com.

I'd look for a 17" rim myself and look for a rim offset between +45 and +50mm for your car I believe. This should be a good balance between looks and daily use.

A set of 17" honda rims from www.handa-accessories.com might fit the bill as well.

And save your steal rims for use in the winter if they use road salt in your area.
