Also can anyone reccomend what is the best size of rims and tyres to use for Accord. Gen 8

I look at my tires... im like omfg.
bro JK57,

Is yr ride a CP2 or CP1? CP1 stock rim is 16" while CP2 stock rim is 17".

Mine has bn upgraded to 18" but it still look "small". IMO, 19" would be nice...but e ride comfort will surely make u uncomfortable.

For 20", thai bros are using it but I think they had to use the lowest profile tyres they can get hold of! The feeling would be riding on a 3 tonner like BMT days!

Depends on yr likings, it's ok to use larger diameter rims.

:)

cheers,

Bro,

Mine is a CP1 ride with stock rim 16". Looks so small and ugly le... Im wondering if change to 19 will it be too big? Also u mentioned that comfort is not there.. Meaning to say if change to low profile tyres... become very bumpy is it ?

bro JK57.

u r right abt the ride comfort. If u r into ride comfort more than looks, then I suggest 18" is max for u to go. Am riding on 18" now with AR of 45. It's still ok but beyond this, u will loose the comfort.

16" surely look ugly. our ride is big especially at the rims area.

To convert to 18", seek my advise...go for 225/45/18. And pump 230/225 for front n back tyre pressure. This will make the ride not so hard.

The lowest recommended is 220 for both.

cheers,

PS. if u can accept bumpy ride, then go for 20", sure look very good...

Hi to all, newbie here.

I've actually converted to twin exhaust for sometimes already and would like to share with all but just not comfortable to discuss it here.

Any suggestions from the bros here?

Incredible! But if u compare the COE price drop differences for big cc cars, the new car price is still not very low.

For those who need more than 5 seaters, MPV is good but do take note, Odyssey 3rd row is very inconvience to get in and out...entrance is too narrow. Try it yrself and u'll understand.

However, the design is nice..
