i was also split between the 19" hfp rims and this 18" rims, 19s ccost too much so i went with 18s. I bought these rims form collegehills honda on sale 800+ shipping which is not bad for Honda rims

what do you guys think of these?? these are only $132 a piece...good if you don't want to buy new tires since they are the same size as the stock rim...

just go to discounttire.com and entire your vehicle data...the drop down should contain the LX-P trim...

my EX-L coupe should be compatible with 17X7 5-114.3 43 rims...

I forgot to add that this is Civic 18" hfp rims and College hills honda said it fits find on the accord. I liked the civic 18 hfp rims better then the accord 18 hfp rims.

What's the difference?

no difference in fitment... I simply was noting that SNX is NOT the accord model designation. The 08 Accord specific designation is TEO... no biggie, many Honda parts are interchangeable

do you recommend these for a black 08 lx-p sedan?

and how did you get these for 800??

Damn on the collegehills website they are expensive... and not for lx-p.... :(

The OP mentions that those are the CIVIC 18" rims, they look almost like the Accord 18" rims.

Looks nice, and tempting for the price but I think I'll shell out more for the Accord ones. (PDS-16 i think?)

pic comparisons?
why would honda make 2 different wheels that look almost identical, that is retarded because it raises production costs to make 2 different designs.

they are both 18s

Those wheel will fit fine on your lx or lx-p. Honda also states that 19" hfp wheels are only for V6 model, but my buddy has the 19s on his v4. I believe honda states that certain models are not compatible because they dont want to compromise too much performance with bigger wheels.

To the OP - thanks for posting the pictures.

I think they look great - if not excellent on the coupe, but question how they would look on the sedan.

I really like the wheels. Very nice.

I think they'd look really good on a white coupe. If I did that, I'd be in for at least a cool $2K. I'd do the wheels, HFP suspension, and those wheels are screaming for larger rotors. :naughty:

Where are you getting your parts? :nuts: $2k would be really cheap for wheels+tires+suspension+brakes

the bronze-like finish looks good with black, but not PMM (which I am also looking) Luckily I see the grey HFP EP-R5 (17" X 7" WITH A +45 OR +55 OFFSET) also looks good.

I was at the parts department today (Vancouver WA) and the guy told me he could order the HFP 19". I thought they were discontinued? He was very sure of himself...
