I just want to start off by saying that im new to this forum and its a pleasure to be apart to this community.

I just bought a 2009 Accord (V6 sedan) and I was wondering if the following wheels will fit:

linea corse lemans staggered wheels.
19x8.5 front, 19x10 rear
bolt pattern: 5x114
offset: 38mm(front), 43mm(rear)
Hub bore: 73mm

heres the link for a more closer look at the exact wheels and the specs:http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=5771

I just want to know if i can fit these wheels on my car and since theyre staggered, what problems can i encounter?

I hope you guys can help me out with honest answers. Thanks!!!

Nice. Linea Corse. Good quality wheels. Enjoy the purchase. You should be all right with that fitment. Make sure to get hubcentric rings though. going from a 73mm hub to a 64.1mm on the car, you're looking at almost 9mm of space, almost half a cm on each side of the hub. That will cause a lot of stress on the lug nuts and studs if you don't get the rings to let the hub itself help out. Just a thought to keep in mind.

Love aftermarket Staggered wheels

But after market wheels will give you a lot of vibration on high speed 60-up even you have a hubcentric ring. With vibration will damage to your suspension with not good. Unless you cruise local

I agree... those sizes should be about right

I have always been told that staggered wheels on a FWD car is a big no-no because it effects handling adversely. Personally I would stay away from a staggered setup. But if you don't care about decrease in handling and possible vibrations then go ahead.

lol... everything effects handling... from rim size to off set to tire pressure.
