Your rims look good BUT I love that 1940 Ford(?) in your garage!!
Is that old car a '40 or??

I like my honda & other 'modern' cars BUT my heart LOVES 1932-41 cars, I dont think I'll ever get over it either....Just recently there was a 1932 Ford for sale for 25k(new Chevy motor, rollBar, recaroSeats, BLACK hardtop Duece!), I asked the guy if he'd trade for my '08coupe(4kmiles), he said NO!

Man, trading for the '32 would of been the Best thing I 've done or the WORST, either way, I'd love to have an old car!

Good to hear someone else here is into rods, me too! Got a built flathead in the garage, looking for something to put in in now, has to be an OPEN car tho.

NICE!!! I really like those rims!! They honestly look really good.......have you put any springs or anything on your car to lower?? If not, then do not expect to have that small of wheel gap!

If you get big sweet rims like that.....you need to lower the car.....BUT DO NOT SLAM THE CAR! Nice sporty look!

IMO the spokes are too thin, i love the HFP wheels because the spokes arent thin and yet not thick, just perfect. something to think about

That is one issue I'm having with that particular wheel...Like the HFP wheels just wish they came in 20"

oic so you busting a straggered, brave

whats the difference between staggered or offset... why is he brave if he gets it??

Staggered is when the front and rear wheels are of different widths (i.e. rear is wider than front).

Offset is the distance between the wheel's hub mounting surface and the centerline of the wheel.

Would staggered be recommended or having all 4 the same is better?

IMO four matching is better, you can still rotate you tires, staggered you cant. Plus on a fwd it serves no pupose other than looks, some say handleing improves but I dont see how it would.

On an Accord it is only about looks anyway-lol so I would go with staggered:lmao:

i bet staggered would look so amazing, Porshe-esque perhaps. I like the design of the wheels, I just would prefer the HFP charcoal color over this silver. then, it would be greeeeat. Dubs look good too.

--Wow, ya got a BUILT FLATHEAD--I'd LOVE ta put that into a '32, 29, or even a 36 Ford or 40 Ford(too many choices, I like em ALL)-I'd love ta see a photo of it(next to your Honda)-Those FLATHEAD motors are GORGEOUS!!

--I tell ya, it's hard to find folks who are into old cars(i work in hospital) & at work, I've met ONE person who appreciates old cars, the other 100 people have NO CLUE...makes me feel like an outcast(I'm used to it, though!)

On that note, My older brother also has a classic truck. It is a 1950 Ford. Still has the Original V8 flathead and runs perfectly!
