Thanks for the info on iforged. It seems to be a knock off of HRE. Even the symbol is very similar.

Right now I don't have an accord, but in the processes of trying to get a good price. I will be getting the stock aero kit which I think will look good with a nice set of rims and a drop.

I have a full kit on my prelude right now and the hassle of getting it painted and put on right was, well a hassle. THe money I sunk into just the kit was enough for HREs. So for me the only option I have is stock aero kit. Also on aftermarket kits, the paint with chip and it looks really bad.

I also think these in black with a polished lip would look really good.

That's a good point. I think chrome would look good on a white accord. I think it looks good on this white bmw. I know a BMW is not an accord but it is white with chrome

Neither of those wheels cost even close to what HRE's cost...

I agree. iForged has a bad rep. They are just a knock of company, such as Rota, and I have read their quality is :down: "iForgery" as they are better known as..

If you are going to go all out, I'd say go for the HRE's. They are custom made on order to your specific size and every measurement. Expect to pay quite a pretty penny though.

If you were to order those wheels, I suggest you go through the owner of that E46 M3, his name is Peter Lee and his company is TOP NOTCH!

I believe HRE are light. Correct me if I am wrong.
