s30020215, I love the gold XXRs and was actually thinking about getting these when I was shopping for mine. You definitly succeded in going aggresive. Is your accord lowered? I think with a little lower stance and a kit that widens the profile of your accord, and it will look like a beast! My

Yeah man...you may actually need to get a camber kit to ADD negative camber! 
But I guarantee you if you do...you'll end having nothing but positive posts in here...I already know it. Super low and super wide get props on this site...

I been following this thread for some time now and getting closer to pulling the trigger on a set of xxr's not sure which yet. My only question is...Are these rims strong (do they bend easy)? i live in nyc n every street is a sh*ty one.

Happy Holidays!

Well nobody has reported any major issues but one must also consider why the cost is so low. Many will tell you that you get what you paid for and others will also say that these are good bang for the buck. You decide.

The tech goes for a test drive and hit the curb right where the sidewalk starts to dip for the drive way. He hit it pretty good, enough to rip a chuck of side wall off my tire. The edge of the rim got a good dent, but no bend or leaks in the wheel. Rear wheel got some nice curb rash too.
However, I will point out that I run 235/40/18 on my wheels, so the tires may have helped mitigate the damage. Also, I live near some bad roads in SoCal and can say I've hit a few pot holes pretty bad too, but I'm sure these aren't as bad as those in NYC. Hope this helps.

Here's one experience that I've had with my XXRs and you can make your own decision regarding their strength. First, I did not do this...it was a tech that worked for the shop I got my camber kit and alignment done at.

I just ordered these wheels today from a local shop. 18x8.75 et20...I'm lowered on eibach pro's with stock struts which is about 1.5"...does anyone with this wheel have the same suspension set up? I think the user with the h-techs may be my best bet? The reason I purchased these wheels was strictly because of this thread. Thanks for all the input guys!!

^^^ I'm gonna ask a dumb question here, but why are you going to 245's if the ones you have now are fine with no issues? I guess you want to go wider?
Side note, I ordered mine last night, 18x8.75 (+35) in flat black.

Can stretched tires on stock height cause vibrations?
