change 94 accord lx rims
wanna put some new rims on my ride rather than those HubCap//
i saw some online store have deal like a wheel and tire package for about 5~600 bucks. Is that ok to go with it ? I ain't doing this for race, just want my ride looks better. how's those rims quality? As long as it will not heaviler then my stock one, i am cool with it. Besides, can remove and install the rims by myself or i need some professional installed. Advice and experience will be helpful.

umm, well...you have to make sure you order the right size lug pattern for your car (4x114.3)
taking the rims off is easy...do you know how to change a spare tire?
the quality of rims should be okay as long as you dont drive like a dumbass and try to drive over curbs or whatnot.
they should come premounted and balanced also.

thanks, i only know my car is 4 lugs, what is that (4x114.3) means? Is that the right pattern for me? coz i also see some 4x100 and other pattern on accord. just an addition question, i may wanna lower my car also since i am working on the rims. wants to get the teins spring, just want to lower about 1" and have a comfort ride quality, teins is good? Besides, do i have to install a new damper for the new spring too? thanks for helping

yea, the 4x100 are for civics and integras... the 4 at the beginnign is how many lugs and the 114.3 is the space measured across the lugs, i think.
either way, just make sure it is 4x114.3 compatible and some are universal which means it accepts both 100 and 114.3
from what i have heard teins are a bit on the soft side? for lowering 1", new dampeners are not necessary but id highly suggest some new replacements since the stock ones are the car are probably shot by now (unless they have been recently changed)
hope this helps.
