I just ordered some of these rims (18inch/7.50) for my 96 accord. After looking on the internet though, I saw something disturbing.

It seems they look way different for every car. T_T I have never seen them in real life for my accord but check this out.

That's what they advertise right..

Now look at this nissan.

http://www.nissanperformancemag.com/october04/350z/

It has staggered rims,

This Acura however, the lip of the rim is far smaller than both of the ones on the nissan check it out.

Anyway they all look different right? They do and now they're already on the way and I have no idea what they will actually look like, on my car. T_Y argh.

Does anyone know why they do this shit? I just hope it looks like the ones I ordered from the website.

Thanks any response is appreachited ;)

some people may say they have that model when the dont, that could be one reason. two, make sure ur ordering from a reputable site, otherwise they may be ripping u off and mislabeling their stuff.

bigger lips have different offsets....u hav to do some measuring to get the correct size offset that will fit the car alright...i havent ever messed with it....but thats what detemines the lip size pretty much....thats how u can get a 5-6inch lip on an m3

for some reason i ain't feeling those rims on the accord. they look more luxury car type than performance looking.unless that's the look ur going for.
but i like the gunmetal.

sometimes websites put the wrong picture in error of the exact application. i see it every now and den.
what?!
