I'll believe you when you spell it right!  :lol:

I'll be doing some experiments fitting a 235, 245, and maybe even a 255 tire with this setup, but it's gonna be a tight fit given that my wheels have such agressive offsets. Again, sometimes you gotta take a little bit of bad with the good. I wanted concave wheels, and I own an Accord, not a Porsche Carerra or BMW M3. I had to compromise to get this look and I am happy I pulled it off. Will keep yall posted on how other tire sizes fit. For now I am just in love with the wheels. Thanks to all who complimented.

I love the look of the wheels; I think they look absolutely amazing, but I am not a fan of the stretched tires.

Nicely done!

Yeah with some wider tires I'd like it a lil better. This is the first wheel set up of your JT that I'm not really feelin. To me the tires look flush but the wheel sticks out past the car a tad. I like the concaveness and the wheel but the sticking out past the car and stretched tire thing I could do without. I'm sure the V6p fan club will approve though. LOL!

Just saw one shot in the coupe pic thread on V6p that made me change my mind. I would always have to see the car at that angle though! LOL!

After looking at the pics again I can safely say that they are not flush. They are poking. I'm a fan of the wheels concaveness (if that's even a word) but not the poke or stretched tire. The old wheels were better. Maybe a fender pull with nice wide tires will complete the look, but as of now, not feelin' it bro.

HEYYYYY JT

1. Love the wheels. I am afraid of you scraping them on a curb.

2. The car looks real sexy right now like your ready to go drifting.

3. The color match is perfect to me. Black and Bronze

4. Your are a wheel whore and i think you need help with that addiction

Thanks for all the props! I am working on new experiments to run wider tires. As for now I am pretty content. Z, I didn't post the new pictures to get you to change your opinion, so stop arguing with yourself! :lol:.

I guess the term "hellaflush" is used as a reference and not as an exact detailed description of a wheel's flushness with the side of the car. I have seen some people poking up to 4" inches of negative offset and running 205 tires saying they are flush. I'm just happy to be the first CM8 to get away with these offsets and not even pulling or ghetto-shitting my fenders. Either way, the rear has more rolling to go so we may see a 235/40 or 245/35 setup soon Wink.

I love the concavity, and I think the new side shots are amazing, but I don't like the fact that the wheels stick out that much past the fenders either.

I think those wheels are sexy, but they gotta stop poking out.

Find a setup that does that with concativity on an Accord, and I will buy you a set!  :P
