I'm pretty sure the OEM 2k Accord V6 Coupe wheels are 16" - if that helps you at all...

I think the offset is too high on the Accord (+55mm?)
Our Maxima is +40mm.
May not fit right.

yea

The V6 Accord rims are interchangible with Maximas. The 4 cyls won't because they're 4 lugs.. I personally wouldn't put those rims on though But it's your car, your choice.

More power to ya... although one sneaky thing to do would be sell her wheels on eBay and pick yourself up something nice with the cash.

hehe, i wont do that, if she does sell her car, she will need the stock wheels, then i get her new wheels... how much do you think she can get for her stock 16s though?

I'd say at least 600 bucks easily.... First it's a Honda, parts are usually more expensive, plus the car is a 2000, the rims are probably in great/good condition with not too much wear on the tires yet. There is always a demand for wheels. People rather buy a used set for 600-800$ with tires, then pay the dealer like 200-300$ per wheel.

Just save your OEM wheels, If she does sell it, just put your stock wheels on it.

if those caps are under $4 a piece, i would get them, other wise i will be getting carbon fiber sheets and cutting a circle out to cover the H. btw, im probably gonna get prelude rims instead of accords... just if youre curious. and i will post pics if anybody wants...

If your planing on buying corbon fiber cloth you can cut it ( but it will fray.) And if you plan on buying solid panels,there very abrasive and you will not be able to cut a perfect/acceptable circle. No dremel's w/ tungsten carbide believe me , you'd be better of purchasing from someone who has had them manufactured by cnc. Good Luck!

i was planning on either getting vinyl ones or or getting the panels custom made. my dads friend owns a shop where they do custom carbonfiber interior using solid panels, i think. he said he'll make them for me with some leftovers. since i can take out the center cap of the H wheels, i should be able make an outline of it and cut it easily. hopefully this will all be as easy as i am thinking...

If your dads friend has experience w/ corbon fiber, then I would not worry. I'm a machinist and cut it before, even w/ todays high tech. machinery its still a challenge.
