Oki... well, after slapping my fugly body kit on, and painting my Accord.... I want to get some rims. After browsing online I found some rims I would like to get but I don't exactly know if they will fit. I have a 1998 Accord LX 4 cylinder. Here are the wheel specs:

Size: 18" x 7.5"
Pattern: universal 4lug (4x100 / 4x114.3)
Color: Black
Offset: +42

Do you guys think that will fit with out a problem?

how low are you ? if you are more than 1.5" low the wheels will rub against the inner fender in turns with 215mm wide tires. other than that the wheels should fit with no problem

I ain't that low..... I only plan to drop it for the shows.... that's about it.... and I just did some more research on 6th gen Accord and custom wheels..... It looks like 18 inch rims with 42 offset are common application for 6th Gen Owners. Hehe... maybe I should have done some google researching before I posted here....

but it has been a while since my last post... so I might as well post something

The correct tire size is 225/4018, which is 25.1 inches in diameter, which is perfect because your stock 195/6515's are 25.0 inches. DO NOT GET 215/35.... THEY ARE ONLY 23.9!!! You'll be fine in the front, but you'll need to roll your rear fender lips in, and maybe dremmel a bit off of the inside of the rear bumper where it bolts to the quarter pannel, depending on what kind of kit you got, and how it fits.

Look at all these bolts I have left over.
