RE: Guess that OEM Wheel

Greetings,

I'm purchasing an Acura CL tomorrow, and the owner tells me that it has some 16 inch wheels that he feels are from a previous year accord. They're six spoke OEM wheels. The only ones that come to mind are these:

<a href="http://tinypic.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/2ykyixu.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a>

Wrong bolt pattern though. Would anyone know of a six spoke OEM wheel that came on the V6 Accord? I'm assuming those are the only OEM wheels with the same bolt pattern.

Also, the first gen 2.2 CL wheels were seven spoke, correct?

Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

(also, here's a picture of the car. Maybe someone will recognize the wheels from the glimpse shot here http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/cto/1535208244.html)

Not the best shot of the wheels, but looks to me like a set of 03-04 V6 Accord wheels.

I know, terrible shot, which is why I was hoping someone with a keen eye and knowledge far greater than mine would know what they were.

Aren't the V6 Accord wheels on the 03-04's 17's? these are def 16's.

Are you sure they are rims? None of the V6 Accords came with 6 spoke wheels.

The LX model with 6 spoke hubcaps is the closest match.

yes I do believe they're rims since the owner says they have Acura caps. Maybe they're just the regular CL wheels? those are seven spoke too though. Hmmm...

Those are six spokes though. Hmmm, if you look at the picture, these look like six spokes (the owner claims they're six spoke wheels too).

What older Accords shared the same bolt pattern? 1998, 1999, 2000, correct?

These wheels come equipped on the 5th Gen Accord EX V6. I had them on my 96 Accord V6 when I bought it new from honda.

I'll take a pic of these wheels on my CL tomorrow just for a point of reference. I couldn't find a picture of a CL on here with these wheels. They actually don't look too bad, and whoever put them on swapped in the Acura axle covers as well!
