17"x8" +35offset front and 17"x9" +35offset rear
will these wheels fit a 92 accord ex
I have searched all over and found people running 19's and 20's
but can't find anyone running low offsets with wide wheels
I know hondas should run same width
but I am getting a good deal on these if they can fit
oh yeah car is lowered about an inch and a half
thanks

check out this thread

you'll almost certainly need to modify your fenders (rolling, cutting). you'll also need to run negative camber as well. the 9 inches of width are probably a bit too wide.

in the end, the wheels will not fit easily. if you want a set of rims you can just slap some tires on, get 'em on the car, and drive off, they won't be the rims for you.

if you want a unique look, and are willing to take the time and money to make it happen, then they may be the wheels for you (though i still think the 17 x 9 is too wide).

hopefully primocb7 can post up the pics of the low offset wheels he used to have.

not only will you have to run negative camber, roll/cut the fenders, use spacers, but the width of the rims, especially the rear is too wide for most FWD cars. the rims will rub everytime you turn or when the car leans to its side. you may be getting a good deal on these rims, but by the time you're done trying to get these to fit, you might as well have bought new rims..these rims obviously belong on a RWD vehicle

i'm pretty sure those rims looked really good too..probably had 2-3in lips on them. but believe me, you're doing the right thing.
