i know, but i have searched and can't find any straight answers.

 

17x7...will it work? i've found rims too cheap to pass up.

 

That offset should be fine, granted it is on one extreme of acceptable offset for a 5th gen Accord/1st gen CL I would imagine.

 

i have a 42mm offset and i just clear the caliper
all rims are obviously different, check tirerack or discount tire to see if they fit

 

Hello,

I currently have BSA 259s and it has a 38mm offset. It is very close to the calipers but no problems at all!!! At ALL!!! Even when the wheels get bashed in potholes and everything. I turn corners at 52mph (tires do slip though) and there isn't rubbing either.

L8R,
James
