YOUR opinion on these rims

Yea im getting these for 300 with 17/215/45 tires, do you think they will clear the front shock, also the tires have like 80% tread on them, they are comming off a 95 accord im almsot posotive that has 4x114.3 lug patern, looks to have a pretty decent offset. Tell me what you guys think, o yea there is no negative camber on the car either They are 17x7 and are spacers bad to use or what?

if someone had em on an accord i would assume 17x7 with a 40+ offset. i thought hondas used 4x100 though, my friends old legend did at least.

i know Civics use 4x100, but i think the Accords may use 4x114.3.

don't do it...offset is going to be in the high 30s or 40. plus only 7" wide would look gay.

if you run a 10mm spacer also get new wheel studs...i have an 8mm spacer and the lug nut hooks up very little with the stud...scares the **** out of me.
