sorry about the quality of the pictures..i haven't posted up the car in a while so here are a few shots with the new wheels i picked up.. i also did the oem navi conversion and swap out all my interior for a 2007 ex-l interior also in black leather..i also changed the steering wheel to the 07 with the navi controls on it..i now have to wire power to the steering wheels so i can get lighting to the steering wheel contols..

the specs on the wheels are:

Axis Hiro's

Fronts: 19x8.5 +35 offset with 235/35/19

Rears: 19x9.5 +40 offset with 265/30/19

What steering wheel does 03 have?

I love the new setup

it had a similar steering wheel but the audio controls dont light up.. and the H on the air bag is chrome, the leather wrap has a diff pattern and it has some type of grip boldges on the side compare to the 03 is just same pattern all around and it doesn't come with the better grip..im using my old airbag everything else is from the 07..

Looks good I've liked those wheels for a while. What did you do with your old interior? was it leather?

me too mike..i just never liked the price for them.. my old interior was leather too but the leather had seen some better days.. especially on the driver side..so i sold my old leather seats to my friend that owns a 07 accord VP.. (value package)..meaning caca!! so he was really happy buying my old leather seats and we put his seats into the my other friends 07 that was loosing it to the bank and just wanted to make some money back for the car he was loosing..so everything from his car went to mine and my other friend VP cloth seats went back into the guy that was loosing his car..so i was a win win situation.. or deal of a lifetime

How much understeer is introduced by going staggered?

How much understeer is introduced by going staggered?

not much..it actually feels really good getting into long curved ramps at high speed..it has alot more grip than when i was running the tl-s with the 235/45/17 i had on them.. and in sharp turns it responds very well too..

[NWINNIE34]

well me wants your steering wheel.... tsx one is a pain in the ass... i have the T shaped wheel where you have the X shaped wheel

its hard on my wrist cause i always used to steer from the bottom of the wheel and now i cant be at the 6 o'clock position because of the 15 buttons on my steering wheel haha
she is pretty quick with the 6 speed..... by all means its still not a fast car, but for the luxury, styling, and smoothness its pretty quick when you need it to be
i think a reflash and tossing on my suspension will help me truly appreciate the car more

Reason I asked is that I'm looking to replace at least my front seats but, Looks like its time for a junk yard search.

Love the new set-up but I can't believe you can get away with that offset!  How much camber are you running in the back?  I'm only 19x8 +30 in the back with the fenders rolled yet I still rub.  Can you take a picture of where the quarter panel meets the bumper?  That's where I'm rubbing really bad and I can't seem to get the fender rolled any more.  How bad do you rub in the front?  With a 45mm offset and a slight pull I still rub over dips.

Ehh not really feeling that setup. Never really liked those wheels, they are bland IMHO.

[jdmaccord]

love the wheels but hate the offset, just cause i know you will be rubbing alot and you can only lover it so much. How much of a pain was it installing oem navi

[v6sicksspeed]

19's are the way to go - looks good.  

what are the left thumb controls on the steering wheel?

im running stock specs camber in the back with the wicked camber kit..and the front is stock without any camber kit. the reason that you are rubbing is because of the 30+ in the back..im running +40 for the back on a 9.5 wheel so it sits deeper in the wheel well oposed to the 30+ causing it to stick out more..also remember i had 20x8.5 and i had to shave off part of the inside of the bumper were it meets the quarter panel just a bit..so it was able to clear those.. and in the front im about 1/4 inch pass the fender but it dosent rub at all i only pushed back the tab for the fender liner and called it a day..

i really like the set up. I just hope no one decides to give you grief because of your Staggered set up

I will be doing the Tsx Full swap soon so look out for that
