Like th etitle - with the 5 spoke 17" from the 2008-09 fit the 2006 Coupe with no issues? Will I need spacers?

Bolt Pattern: 5 x 4.50 or 5 x 114.3
Diameter: 17 inches
Offset: 55


Thanks!

nope. You will have no problems nothing needed!! post some pix when your done!!

we've seen this many times already... the 08-09 alloy 18" rims look really great on the 7th gen cars

Jeez hanks for the feedback guys.

MSChu - do you have any links to threads of guys that have done it? i've got a Black 2006 Coupe.

I've been hunting for the wheels, looks like I just missed a few sales in classifields :(

Any pics would be great!

Just did the 8th gen V6 coupe wheels on my 7th gen sedan...

18"x8", +55, 235/45 tires fit just fine.

my stockers on my friends coupe

Y does the look like an SUV ^^^^^

:paranoid:

I was about to say the same thing?? Looks jacked up!

his accord has springs made for 16" wheels so it'll jack up as he gets bigger wheels. he needs a drop.

to the op, u need spacers if u want to make the wheels flush with the fender.

Drool. I love white 7th gen Accords. I got a black 2006 sedan right now and want a car that looks like yours now. My car is too well broken in for a trade-in so perhaps I can just spruce it up with new wheels like yours and get a few dents fixed, namely one big one which was a hit and run when I get these wheels cuz I agree they look better then the 9 spoke stock rims but not by too terribly much. Still a good upgrade option if you want to maintain stock looks that won't impact resale values like the hit you take with aftermarket wheels. :banana: Nyce car.

Only problem is I've added ~10 lbs of unsprung weight at each corner with these. I was expecting a little but not that much. The jury is out on if I am keeping them long term.

So does that mean my cars going to raise itself too if i got with 17's or 18's? I've got the 06 with stock suspension.

the car won't raise because you have heavier or lighter wheels. the overall diameter of the wheel might be larger from the pre-08 models to the 08+ models. we run 225/50/17, the same size as G35's (full-size cars), but i'm unsure of the 07 and earlier models on tire size. if the overall diameter is larger, the car will be higher off the ground because of that.

Lookin' good :thmsup:. Does the car handle any different with the 18's on?

Well Heres another question -

Whats the widest you can go on 2006 EX Coupe's without rubbing?

I've been looking at the 18 inch TL A-Spec wheels. They're 18 x 8.5 with a 45 offset.

Will they work ?

i believe someone has them, and i dont think hes rubbing with being this low.

I think those are TL Type S 17" wheels not the 18" aspec
