what size rims???

[1990HybridCB7]

IMO 17" looks and performs the best. it's not too heavy and there is enough tire to prevent dents (never go 205/40/17 tires on accords!) and provide less sidewall flex. 15/16" wheels are for civic/integras with 4x100 . 18" is just for show/looks. it all depends on your application!

Why do you say to never go 205/40/17 on our Accord's? I was just curious because thats what I got right now. Also, what size tires would you say/think are best for our CB7's on 17's?

205/45-17 or 215/40-17 because of potholes and such, 205/40-17 gets kinda skinny on the sidewall
i have 215/40-18 and i love them..

fills the wheelwell perfectly..

18' aren't just for look. They are perfect for cb7. Plus if U go 225/35-18, it exactly equals 185/70-14 and 195/60-15 in height and diameter. Therfore, no worry about speedometer misreading.
IMO, kitted accords should go with 19's because the body of the car is bigger.

the only problem that i see with a 225mm wide tire is that with a 42 mm offset, like mine, its gonna scrub in the back if it lowered.. i have skinnier tires, but they are taller, so its gonna rub some..

Mondojackal, What do U mean by SCRUB? Did U mean RUB Plus, what will the tire RUB TO exactly? The inner side of fender or the control arm

Of course I'm a sleeper so, I rock the stock look anyways...

no, i mean scrub. with my offset, and the fact that my tires have the rim protector things, the tires scrub pretty hard on the inner lip of the rear fender (the part covered with the rubber strip).

I say 17s with 45s are good for everyday use they look good,handle good and trust me i ran over a curb with my cps no damage but if was 40s i could of kiss my wheels good bye! 17s/16s+fat tires+low offset=love!

i recently went from 17 to 16. i like that hella better than my 17's

[maroonaccord2.2]

I say NO BIGGER than 17". I drive 90 miles a day, and my 15" Lude wheels ride nice. Plus, tires are cheaper to replace..... I might bump to 16", but now I don't think I'd go bigger.

Bigger is not always better.
