Looks great, I just ordered the same rims the other day! Except we don't even have an 06 yet, but will be buying a white or silver sedan soon.

Ah, that's just some building near my GF's apt where I snapped a quicked picture.

I'm really glad I didn't go with 18"+ wheels! Those 17"s are plenty firm of a ride for me. The 16"s are damn near cushy in comparision. The handling is improved, but on a bumpy road, it's not a pleasant ride at all :dunno:

I agree with BeatCrazy regarding the ride from 16" to 17" rims/tires. The handling is great, but depending on the road condition, it can be very choppy. I much prefer the ride with the 16" versus the 17", but I prefer the look of the 17" by far. I guess we all have to compromise. :)

What do you think a good asking price is for my stock '06 EX 16" wheels w/500 miles on the tires?

I like the height in th back, but the front could use 1" to 1 1/2" drop. What do your recommend?

I've always loved those silver star rims. Honda has used them all over the place as HFP for civic and accord and option for TSX. Nice choice.

Thanks!

Funny thing, I've never seen them on the road on a '03-05 Civic hatch. I've only seen them on one other car on the street... looked like an '05 V6 Accord Coupe, but they looked a bit darker than mine and maybe a +55 offset instead of my +45. How could someone get these HFPs on an Accord in years past?

Very Nice!

I'm still wondering how you coulda got these rims from the factory on an Accord? The one I saw was just a straight-up Coupe, no other add ons, and it appeared factory installed tires.

edit: or is that first picture from an OEM catalog or something?

These wheels are HFP Accessory, they do not come installed on the car from the factory...

D'oh! (slaps head).

Of course. I still have to wonder why they made two different offset sizes for Accord and Civic Si.

Those are the exact same tires I've been looking to get. Can you post a picture of the tires at a closer angle. I've got those same rims so I need an idea of what the whole package will look like. Thanks.
