New to the forum.... let me apologize in advance for the dumb newb question :D

I'm looking to get the stock 2004 TL 17" rims. Wondering if they will fit on my 99 Accord EX V6 Coupe? My ride is completely stock, not lowered. I know the offset on my stock rims are 55, and I think the offset on the stock TL rims are 45. Will this pose a problem in anyway? Also will the TL rims stick out too much? I think the dimensions are 17"x8.5" vs 16"x6.5"......

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

No, too wide. They will rub.

I'm pretty sure they're still too wide. 6th gen coupe's running 235 tires rub a little, and the TL wheels use 235 tires (on the TL, of course). I'm not sure what were to happen if you would run a 225 tire on it, the offset shouldn't be a problem (I've seen people run anywhere from 42-48 on 6th gen's).

Go to V6P.net or Honduh.com to get a better feel of what setup other people have with their 6th gens (sedan or coupe doesn't matter), and you'll be better able to gauge if it will work.

Thanks for all your help BenjiBoy... I could potentially get the set w/ OEM Turanza's for a very good price. But I figured before I commited, I wanted to make sure that it wouldn't have an issue fitting on my ride.

Anybody on this forum running these rims on there 6th gen Accord?
