An offset of +35mm is WAY too low for an Accord. My 99 has +45 18" wheels on, perfectly flush with the fender.

This is +38mm on a 01-02 Accord with 18x9 wheels:

Yes, drop the car on a $4,000 air bag system and run extensive negative camber so they don't rub.

It might look goofy, but they will fit and have the correctly sized tires. If you're lowered, they are almost guaranteed to rub on bumps. If you're not lowered, you should be fine. Also, stretching tires can be another way of getting them to fit, but most people don't like that look. (The pictures above are with stretched tires)

Are the wheels being sold locally? You can always test fit them before you buy.

dont stretch your tires! its dangerous and stupid. if you want to make your car look good, buy 18's and just run it with some mild lowering springs. 19's would look so stupid. even those 18s are way too big imo. and besides, if you want ur tires to rip apart when u try a 1/4 mile, go ahead and stretch them. otherwise, get a high performance tire as wide as u can safely fit on the rim (it will say the acceptable rim width). and for god's sake, dont make it into an actual rice urner. that car u like prob has less than 200hp, a 0-60 of like 9 seconds and a 1/4 mile of like 17 or 18 at 85 mph, especially with those huge rims and ****ty stretched tires. get a quality set of proper tires and u will improve your handling dramatically. and imo, looks is bs if u cant perform. e.g. lamborghini murcielago (amazing looking car...**** on the track with more than one direction for turning) hence why nascar is stupid. anyway have a good one
