Looking in to buying some rims just wondering if 18" while fit with stock suspension. No rubs on bumps or while turning. Also I have a Black 6th gen accord do you think the all chrome or the black with chrome lip would look better. If I go with 18 I would have to beef up my brakes to though right due to the extra rim weight.

 

18s with stock suspension will look like crap without a drop.

 

How come would it sit up higher or just look way out of place. What size would you go with? Would the space between the car and the wheels increase to?

 

you can go up to 20" with no drop in 6th gen. get gloss black w/ a polish lip. a guy down the street has a 99 coupe with a 1.5 inch drop with 19 black w/ polish lip. 20 wont look bad but you will be kinda floatin.

 

First of all it will be taller and the drop is a requirement a car with that size of rim and no drop looks whack, go with the black and chrome lip and drop it 1 1/2 to 2" inches it depends though, you do have to look for the right size of tire so the tire won't hit the fender

 

yes, atleast a 1 inch drop wont look bad. u better find some really low profile good tires though. also beware of a camber kit incase the drop and the 18's dont settle right. as for rubbin and scraping, depends on how much rubber you have width ways and tread ways. too wide and you might scrape your inner fender, not low pro enough and there goes your fender lining.

 

you might want to think on getting some 17s cause you can put some 205-45 and you dont have to worry about a pot hole that much, otherwise if you stick with 18s you need some real low tires and the rims will bend if you hit a pot hole

 

since larger rims have lower profile tires, the gap to sidewall ratio increases... giving the appearence of a lifted car... even if the diameter of the wheels are unchanged.

:thumbup: Thanks for all the replys I was thinking of getting 17 but the 18 seemed easier to buy on ebay. I have 16 on it now and the ride is good but the rims are starting to look like shit cheap alloy rims that are pealling.

 

18s with no gap = sex for me
