Alright ladies and gentlemen, after 9 suspension setups and 12 sets of wheels on my 7th gen, I think I can safely create this thread and actually help people. Post up all your wheel and suspension fitment questions, and I will answer them to the best of my knowledge! I'll start it out.

UPDATE: 12/24/09



Operation: "Shutemdownflush"
Well, Christmas got me in all sorts of creative spirits. Since DTD is taking back my old battles for a full refund, I am looking at the following setup:

17x8" -6 Front 205/50/17 3.75" Lip
17x8.5" -13 Rear 205/50/17 4.5" Lip

It's gonna happen, no excuses.

I'm thinking or running 17x9 in the front and 17x10 in the rears, +15 all around.. Planning on 205/40 for the front and 205/45 in the rears... Btw the rims are fno1rc in matte black!!!

That's gonna look sick! Concave FN01RCs FTW!!! Have you modified your fenders yet?

 

[kEyChAiN]

Damn 205 on a 10 is a ALOT of stretch.

 

[220allboto]

I'm gonna roll and do a slight pull on the fenders..
Also I'm gonna play with the camber arms, I'm going for a that negative camber look in the rears..

 

[Blackhawk]

I hope my existing camber can clear my new setup. Not really feeling like I want to run more than -3 degrees in the back.

Depends what tire you run to determine rubbing issues. The wheel itself will sit flush with the car depending on how low the car is (the suspension geometry on 7th gen Accords actually pulls the wheel in as the wheel get's closer to the fender). Hope this helps.

I have 18X7.55 +45 offset Enkei FLC-01 on 225/45/18 Potenza RE-01s. I'll be putting the winters on soon which are OEM 17" wheels on Michelin X-ice2.

I lose the competition.
