get 18's... C2 multipieces are MMMMMM nice. will make your car BAD!@$$... and btw, selling 17's is not necessarily easier, cuz it depends, if u get wheels that are 4 lug universal not taking into account the offset, i guess u could sell them to civic to integra owners, which may help selling easier with 17s, however, if u get 4x114.3 and 5x114.3 it may be easier to sell 18's, cuz i kno most like 18s better on their accords, anything smaller just cuz their looking for speed, NOT looks. My 18 inch Racing Hart 4 piece wheels are nice like jasons1234, damn 19's, that is SICK, and BTW, if u get mutliepiece sometimes the wheels look smaller cuz of the lip, take that into account, ur wheels are gonna look like 16s cuz of the lip, my friend had Breyton Inspirations on his 2000 bmw 323i that were 19x9, and they look like 18s, cuz he had BIG HUGE LIP, like the BMW m5 wheels ot bmw 540's. take that into account, the C2 evo's have lip too, so remember that.

I think if you were going to go with the WW/OEM kit then just go with the 17's.

If you wanted the extreme or show look with other body kits or even with no bodykit (and a lower drop) then go with the 18's. If you have a 5th gen, it might be a problem so honestly, I wouldn't know.

Racing Hart wheels are very good quality and weight.

Okay...a lot to process...and a LOT of mixed inputs. RKV, I was going to ask where you got 4 piece rims, hehe...you have a good point though, 3 pieces do make the rims look smaller because of the big lip. In reply to JonHsiung's response, have any of you 5th gen owners had a problem with 18's? 17's?
