Hey guys.

New to the Honda world. Coming from years of VWs.
Does anyone have any info. on installing H&R wheel spacers on the new Accords.

I just got a '05 Accord EX V6. I love it.

Welcome new member..

The last time I remember going on their site , it seems as tho I saw directions in there.

if not , I'm sure that if you give them a call they will be more than helpful.
I know from experience that the spacer is fitted between the wheel and the hub and that you have to exchange the wheel studs you have for longer ones, you can then use your same lug nuts you had on before.

But check them out at www.hrsprings.com or call them at 888-827-8881

Just call me helpful

the only wheel spacers that i know of are what you just said, remmy, and i would enver EVER put them on anythnig...not because of the look, ut because without extended wheel studs, they are dangerous.

EXCEPT FOR H&R's ..they are correct units that most circle track guys are using to get that look and that offset that they need for the track...

These spacers do the job right by moving the wheel out from the hub to increase wheel track for a lower roll center, thus increasing the handling performance and therefore enhancing your vehicles overall design.

Now there kits come complete with all the necessary wheel bolts, studs, nuts and good instructions on how to do the do with what you buy them for.

If you members need to figure out how to measure these for your ride...
Yo, YO, YO ..Just Ask Me!
