I have just picked myself up a set of "new" (new to me not new to the world) 17" alloys which I intend to fit on my 6th gen 1.8i 52 reg. I don't know what my offset is but I am led to believe that it is ET50 by this page here http://www.wheelfitment.eu/car/Honda/Accord%20(1993%20-%202003)/. However they have ideal tyre size for 17" rims as 215 when it is actually 205 according to every online calculator. I went ahead and got 215s anyway as that's what they came with.
Does anyone know if the offset for my car is indeed ET50? The offset of the new wheels is ET42, will this be ok or do I need spacers of some kind? If so what width is recommended?
Secondly, will I need longer bolts/nuts for the new wheels? I believe it should have 12x1.5s on it right now. The new wheels are have tapered holes, dont know if the steelies are until I take em off, probably tomorrow.
Pic is attached. They claim to be genuine Hondas but who knows. They did come off a 2000 Accord however so I am optimistic that all is fine.
