18 inches is a little big. If you can find those in 17 inch, they would look good.

You should actually go with 225/40/18 tires.

I know the HRE wheels are high as hell and I am not quite sure how they would look on my accord. Like someone else said they are used for more expensive cars and thats why I am skeptical about them. More than likely I will go with the Blitz wheels.

i agree, im not too fond of 18" rims on a car, expecially on an accord. Too much weight. in my opinion. 17" wouldn't look as big and plus ur speedometer wouldnt be as off. But its whatever u want and u have to decide what size u want and u like.
