99 accord lx  I'm not a fan of chrome rims on imports,  but to each his own.  I do like the deep lip however

*LOL* that part of the post had gotten pushed to the side and the color was more what I was thinking.... and I'm old school 80's like so I think chrome goes with everything....

For a chrome rim, those do look nice.  Not too wild, which is good.  The lip does look good.  How much is a set of those going to cost you?

sir nasty- agreed.

i thought i would like polished aluminium, but after i saw chromes on my boys coupe...  i must have it.

plus my ride is black- so i think i need the chrome to make it pop a little.

My car has chrome 17s.  You can see it in my gallery.  They arent anything fancy though.

I would go with 19's if I were you. I have a 99 accord ex coupe and I am selling my 18's and upgrading to 19's. The 18's don't fill in the fenderwells well enough on the 6th gen. accord coupes. Believe me you will regret not going bigger if you get 18's!!!!!

This is my accord pictured on the left with 18x7.5 inch Zinik Ikeda's

I never thought 20s would look good on an Accord, but your car looks sick.  Its super clean.
