wanted: rims for 95 Accord

[princess]

Anyone local got some rims for a '95 Accord? My daughter's has a bent one & it keeps leaking air. The ones on it now are Acura, she'd like to have Honda ones, if possible....

I have two old steel ones I can give you for the cost to ship. You might want to paint them. They are from a 1995 LX and have tires on them which you can also have, or I can remove them.

Thank you for the offer, but I think we should try for alloys from an EX, don't you?

The leaking one is actually cracked! It was that way when we bought it, but wasn't noticed until it kept leaking down. Sure does change the gas mileage when it's low!!

Until we find a replacement, I'm trying to limit her highway miles! So I need to find 4.... eeeewwww!!

Sorry!! didn't know you had alloys. :headbash: :headbash:

Princess, there are a ton of alloys on craigslist. If you search for "accord" you will get a lot of cars but also a lot of wheels/misc parts. If you search under 4x114 then you'll get a ton of stock and aftermarket rims that will fit the car.

I looked there & there wasn't that many. I looked under, rims, wheels, 4x114, accord even acura. Most were either 5 lug, too big, less than 4.... If I found the same Acura one I could get by with just 1. I did find some on ebay for a decent "buy it now" price, but the 100 dollar shipping makes is too pricey. I was hoping to go with OEM from an EX, but just might have to go aftermarket.... I haven't given up though.

I sure didn't realize how banged up people get their rims! Some I saw were in really sad shape!! I bet the owners that curbed them needed a lot of alignments!!

I'll keep an eye out for you, I check craigslist several times a day. How much you looking to pay? Also you could try to post a "WTB" ad. A lot of people have stuff just lying around that they're lazy to post.

[princess]

to get just one..... this is what it needs to look like.....

I've seen them in the 50 dollar range (which sounds about right....), I'd just like to find it local so I'm not adding shipping.....

[BenjiBoy650]

Haven't seen those around here too much, especially not for sale. I have a helluva time finding 4x114 CL/TL wheels for sale.

[BenjiBoy650]

Take a look at these. They have tires and they're on the pricey side but worth a shot.

If she needed tires..... but she doesn't. I found one on ebay! I didn't bookmark it on THIS computer....I'll see if I can show you later....

We also found out that someone swiped the 2 relays for the A/C! That's another 30 bucks!

[princess]

We found a rim!! It matches the others & was only 60 bucks!! :)

get some evo oz wheels they sell em on ebay for like 50 sometimes :thmsup:

[bluevietboy]

Hey i found quite a bit of 4 lugs rims on Craiglists and Ebay. I guess it all depends on how much you wanna spend for the set. But i can keep my eyes out for you. I'm also in the market for some rims.

[VTECaddict]

daaang. this thread is over a year old! :eek:

[princess]

:yes: she's had the rim on for quite a while now!!

We forgot to put the little spare back in the Pilot...anyone want it? :)

Should I keep hanging on to the original alloys for the Accord? :dunno: More than likely my next one will take a different size anyway. I'd planned on putting them on for trade in so I could keep my chrome ones for the next car.
