Default LX to EX Wheels?

Hello All,

First post and new member of the form - you all talk about great stuff!

I'm getting a 2005 Accord LX and wanted to put stock 2005 Accord EX alloy wheels on them. The tire sizes are slightly different: the LX is P205/65R15 and EX is P205/60R16. Is that a problem? Or am I going to have to completely change the tires AND the rims? Is the larger tire size also going to mess up the current set-up/suspension...I don't want the tires rubbing against anything...

Everything is stock on the LX - nothing fancy.

Thanks,

James

You will have to change tires & wheels. Everything else should be ok.

You dont HAVE to change the tires. It's not going to significantly hurt anything. Speedo may be off a few mph, but thats it.

I get a speedo error of 0.8%, not worth even mentioning!
