They look good, but yes they are super heavy. I upgraded to some rpf01 and it compliments the car more.

Your car looks amazing with those wheels!

I agree that the stock wheels look nice but are too damn heavy (nearly 30lbs!) Also, the +50 offset isn't ideal either. Adding spacers would end up adding even more unsprung weight...Definitely want to swap out the wheels soon :D

I ran 20mm/25mm until I got my rims. It helps make it look flush. The top pic is with spacers. That was the first mod for my car. 2nd pic I just like

The stock wheels paint / clearcoat it awful (like every other Honda before it). Mine started corroding after a year and the dealer just hides behind normal wear and tear clause.

One bright spot is I think these wheels are very durable. Here in Michigan over the last 2 years I have hit thousands of potholes. Many at the "Oh s**t WTF did I hit" severity. and the wheels still are balanced like they came fro the factory. One benefit of their massive weight I guess.

I like the 18" Si rims, but prefer the look of the Accord Sport 19" rims.
I think the perfect rim would be the Accord Sport rims, in an 18".
