? about rims

I have a quick question about rims. I know that stock 7 blade rims for 5th gen accords fit 4th gen accords. A friend of mine told me that it might not fit 3rd gen accords, which is what i have. Is this true? i am hoping that it does fit cause i am planning to get those rims. Also, does gsr rims fit 5th gen accords? thanks for listening to me

Can you give state the years of these Accords? I can't keep track of 7 generations.

3rd gen accords are 86-89, 4th gen are 90-93, 5th gen are 94-97, 6th gen are 98- something

just like bobbyisking said

You want to put on those @20lbs rims? If looks are your thing I'd check what your stock rim dimensions are and the dimensions of the intended rims. That would include if the offset is more negative or positive. If they're more positive it could do some scraping in your wheel well. Just something to consider. For performance go for lighter after market rims. Honda doesn't make lighter rims but they've got some very nice OEM rims (20 pounders each!)

No the 7 blade rims will NOT fit your 86-89 accord. Vice versa, the gsr rims will NOT fit the 90-present accords.

Just get some gsr's or some civic si (99-01) rims.

like ex-r said the wont fit.

dr. - the 94-5 ex alloys are only about 16-17 which is not bad considering the weight of a lot of aftermarket rims. oh and honda does make light rims. I have 12lb. ITR rims on my car :wink:

Hey, Thanks 93. I stand corrected. There ya go Bobby. I'm eyeing some 9lbs myself. Save save save like my mother use to say.
