To me the 18's don't fill in the fenderwells enough. If u get 18 or 19's just make sure the width is 7 or 7.5" and it won't rub. _____________________________ 1999 Honda Accord "EX"(SOLD) 1996 Nissan 240sx "SE" (in reply to Sauce) Post #: 4

But i found some 18's that looked good and were a garunteed fit at wheelmax.com so i went w/ them. Look great just need a drop now haha _____________________________ 99 Accord Lx 2.3 4 cyl V tec (in reply to j_man_honda) Post #: 5
