The 96-97 EX rims are BORING! They look like hub caps, and everyone swears that they are. I dont exactly know what Honda was going for when they designed the 96-97 EX rims, maybe a more classical look? In any case, I'm getting them off of my car ASAP, and am considering the 97 SE 'bubble' rims or the 97 SE blade rims. Does anyone know if these rims are the same size as my stock 96 EX rims? I think I read somewhere that they were a size smaller, but I hope that isnt true. My favorite factory Accord rims would have to be as follows

90-93 EX rims

92(93?) SE rims

94-95 I-4 EX rims

97 SE rims (both styles)

01-02 EX V-6 Coupe rims

03 I-4 EX sedan rims

03 EX V-6 Coupe w/ 6-spd 17" rims

IMO, the 94-95 EX wheels look better than the 00 SE rims when put on a 6th gen. I doesn't look right when the 00 SEs are on a 5th gen, because the spokes are too thick.
I agree, I think the 94-95 EX alloys look better than the 00 SE's. But hella people have em, it's time to switch it up a bit. I wanted the 02 SE's at first, but I ended up getting the 00 SE's. I haven't seen any 5th gens out here with em, and the only one I've ever seen with em is the one pictured in this thread.

I think im gonna paint em flat black, possibly leaving the outer ring silver:dunno:

i personally like the 94/95 EX then the 00 SE's, but my RH M7000's own all.
Yeah, I seen his car, looks nice. It's his car that got me liking the 02 SE's.

If nobody posts a pic by the time I get home, I put one up. There's a dude on here who's got a white 5th gen and he's got em on, there's a pic of his car in his sig, it's dropped.

I really wanted the 02 SE's too, but I love being different so I went w/the 00 SE's
