There are a few here in Austin that were shipped over, much nicer than trying to convert a TSX IMO. (this is just my opinion, not against anyone here that has done it, so save the hater responses!)

People over here make a big deal about larger wheels. Like "you got get either 18's or 20's
, nothing smaller than that cuz it's gonna look weak"

Euro R stock tyres are 215 R17 and most change and use back stock RE050 tyres. Some do 225 R18 after a while but 19 is pushing it tto heavy and the other issues like cost of tyres to mileage errors etc...

Well, I don't do the trading as we have a shop that gets it shipped to Sing. Not sure if they prepared to ship to USA and then payment in advance etc plus trust etc. Boy, if small item easier, big like bonnet, could be troublesome for 1 piece.

The Euro Honda Accords we have (and JDM) are both 2.0 and 2.4, and 2.2 diesel.
The JDM only Euro-R is a tuned and stripped out version of the 2.0 Sport.
So, since Acura is somewhat what Lexus is to Toyota, they changed the interior a bit to make it look its money.
The body is all Accord - it's the US Honda Accord that has a slightly different body to the rest of the world's Accords.

Here in Singapore, we get the JDM Accords (CL chassis) as parallel (grey) imports. I think only Australia is selling both models CM as the Accord and CL chassis as the Accord Euro.
Confusing eh?
