2007 Accord sedan v-6

I have a 2007 accord v-6 sedan with the factory 17" rims. I am looking ideas on what kind of rims to put on it. i want to stay with 17''-20'' rims and also if there is any other vehicle's that have bigger disc brakes that would fit also.

Everyone has their own taste, as far as wheels go. I go more for the sporty looking wheels. I like these wheels, and they are Honda wheels, so you know they will fit right.

Hey BossHowg, if you do happen to find a new set of rims, could I buy your 17" rims off of you? I currently have a 2006 Honda Accord LX and I want to upgrade my rims, but am having bad luck finding some nice 17" OEM rims.

If you get aftermarket rims, make sure you know the hub-size so you can get spacer rings for them otherwise you will be balancing your tires repeatedly until you realize it's not a wheel-balancing issue that is causing the vibration at high-speeds, lol.

Yup - it's a stock Honda trunk spoiler. I too think the wing is a bit much. I got my wheels here:

Didn't do this but remember the post. Reads like you may want to go to 18" rims with the brake upgrade.

I have those HFP wheels on my coupe. They look great and I love them, but I think 18" or bigger wheels look better on these cars. Especially with the body kit and a drop. I'm gonna need tires soon and will need to decide whether to keep these or go bigger

Most yard don't sell door skins they sell entire doors. And $400 a door is cheaper than the $627.00 Honda wants for front left & $535 for rear left.

What about going thru insurance? Did center post get damaged? You still need paint time, swap out other pieces.

what about the hfp wheels from the eighth gen that have a gold finish. They look sweet. Although I always older women with them at stoplights. Probably because they can afford them.
