Arrow Need help getting new rims and tires

Hey,
I would like to get a new set of rims and tires for my 2000 Accord EX Sedan (4dr - 4 cyl). Here is what I'd like to know:

-Do I need "4 lug" or "5 lug" wheels? How do I find out?
-How do I prevent them from getting stolen? "Lock bolts" "wheel locks" or something?
-How do I find the measurements of the currents wheels I have?
-Can you guys provide any details about these rims? (see attached image)


Thanks for your help!

You need 4 lug, 114.3mm lug spacing (or also equivalent to 4.5 inches). Wheel locks should prevent your wheels from being stolen but as with everything else, if they want it they will have it. Can't help with the rest, sorry. I think you should be looking for an offset of about 40-48mm, somewhere in that range.

- 4x114.3 bolt pattern (4 lug)
- locking lugs that can be found at any local auto parts store and can be ordered with a package if bought online (usually they provide lugs with a package deal tho)
- look at the current tire size on your car and then go Here to find out what other size rims/tires will come close to the diameter of whats on there now
- i have no idea what size/brand those rims are, obviously they are of a chrome finish
