Just found these on local Honda dealer's website. I haven't seen these yet on an accord so not sure how they'll look but here it is. Which style do you guys prefer? The old or new?

I haven't seen the old on an 8th gen yet so I'll go with new.

I know they look similar but I don't think those wheels on 7th gen are 19's. I would love to see these on accords.

Sure. Here it is: http://www.carmichaelhondastore.com/store/accord08.html

Also, if anyone is near Sacramento California area, this dealer (link above) is having a heck of a deal on HFP body kits (pick up price only). If I was into body kits, I would've jumped all over this deal:

that looks like the "Silverstar" HFP rims for a 7gen Accord. They were only available in 17". So I guess this is a new HFP rim? :dunno:

The 10-spoke 19" HFP is my choice, easily. Speakin' of which, I better get a set before they get discontinued! :eek:

He got it right! It's called silverstar and it was only available in 17" fitments... And they're saying they're 19s?? hahahah!

The 17" Silverstars were called EP-R5s. It appears to me that this is a 19" version. I guess they do look a bit dated, but they are still good looking wheels, and would look good on a 8th gen car.

The 10 spoke wheel looks a LOT like the Civic Si wheel from '06-'07. I forget if the were 16" or 17". Whats up with the note: "for 2-door V6 models only"?

i'm slowly liking them more than the 10 spokes.. hope someone sports them sometime soon so I can see what they look like.

I think the honda dealer has those posted in error. Honda's website doesnt list them as available, and i cant find them anywhere to order in the honda parts catalog for the 8th gen coupe (i work for a honda dealership).

Not sure what I think of them yet. Either way, I've already invested in the old 19's so that's what I'm sticking with.

10 spokes = 10 spoke gaps that will need scrubbing when detailing. but the top ones do look kinda like old tl wheels.

doesnt seem to match the style of the 8th gen IMO
