Cool Accord v6 17's 3rd set this week!

friends mom wrecked her v6 accord last week and when i went to his appartment he was keeping some stuff off her car in his storage room.

Stock would be 215/50/17. You could also do 225/50/17 (which is a little taller than stock) or you could do 225/45/17 (which is a little shorter than stock). What is the width of those wheels? If they are 6.5", I personally would stick with 215, but if they are 7" wide, I'd consider 225s (which is what I have).

i wanna say they are 7 inches wide.. they're at home so i cant check now.. but i like the fitmet of the tires width wize.. its just it lowered the car a bit and made a hair more of a gap. which im thinking the 225 might take car of..
