2015 Accord Sport Wheels

Thinking about replacing my EXL wheels with another OEM style wheel...the seller says they have a 49mm offset - will I be OK without spacers?

Thanks for the reply. Guess I'm still confused. Tourings come with 17's and there are members who have put 18's and 19's on their LX. Makes me think it's the design of the wheel. But that still doesn't explain why it worked only on the Touring(maybe ex-t-l). Lots of people like this wheel so I'm sure we'll find out if it only works with the touring without spacers. Glad you got yours on..they look good.

The link from the other post shows last generation EXL wheels. Not sure of their offset but 49 doesn't seem right. Seller is also claiming they are OEM. I'd ask the seller to send you a picture of the back of the wheel. The offset will be stamped on it. If it matters to you if they're real or replicas they should also show Honda stamped on them. Those wheels are made by Enkei so they may also have that stamped as well. After what happened to jtamase I'm not sure I'd trust a wheel that was 7" 49 offset.

Thanks Hal9000...

Another wheel I was looking at:

These should find OK....not sure about the quality though - decisions, decisions

Or matlybe it's some fluke.. I will check to see if I can get a wheel alignment tomorrow, or tuesday to see if it makes a difference.

The offset for the tire is 48. I am going to the shop today and show my photos.

I ended up getting spacers and might only be an alignment issue. Since mine is an LX, the tirescare aligned to 16s, and the blue civic is a touring and the wheels are most likely aligned for 18s. Just a guess.

heyyy did you use your LX lugs upon installing those SI wheels? just wanna know because I am planning to get my civic a 19" accord sport rims

Will the "Sport" wheels on the 2015 Accord fit the 2016 Civic?

Any potential issues? Will a simple swap out be ok?

Thanks in advance!

hi man, Did you have this installed the accord wheels to your civic? how was it? can I see photo. I'm planning to have that one too. Thanks in advace
