2011 Accord 4 Cylinder, putting on 6 Cylinder OEM Wheels

Hi-

First off, thank you in advance for the help.

I have a 2011 Accord Sedan 4 Cylinder with 16" hubcaps. I am looking to purchase a set of Wheels off of a 2010 V6 Coupe (18"). Are these interchangeable?

I called 3 dealerships-

1st- NO
2nd- Of Course
3rd- We are not allowed to advise you on this.

I want to make sure these will fit before I go ahead and purchase.



Thanks again-

Matt

Thanks! I will be buying from a private seller. Only paying $300 for the wheels and then will have to buy the tires as well.

yes they fit fine. they are going to be about 10 lbs heavier per corner though. it will feel a bit more sluggish. i just swapped mine out.

You will feel the heavier wheels.

I love the look of 18"s on the Accord but they are too heavy in my humble opinion.

personally think 11-12 v6 wheels look better on sedan's than 08-10 v6 wheels.
