    Question on Kosei K1's

    I've decided on the Kosei K1 Racing Wheels in 16 x 7.5

    Kosei K1

    My main question is will this wheel even fit on my car? I've read through the many topics and know that our cars have 4 x 100 setup but it seems like this has 5 x 100 and won't fit. I found it through tirerack.com and figured in that case it should but it doesn't seem it will. Thanks for any help.

    Bad link.
    Our wheels are have 4x100mm lugs, it is safe to go with a 35-40mm offset. That is the size of most 4 lug Hondas.
    I looked them up on tirerack and they do look nice. I saw that the pic has a 5 lug design. You should call tirerack to verify the sizing. Their phone# is 888-541-1777

    obviously a 5 lug wheel won't fit your car, but most wheel companies make their wheels to fit a variety of different lug patterns.
    here's a 4lug version:

    i must add that those are some sweet f-ing wheels.

    Avoid getting 35mm offset on a 3g ,don't ever do that on purpose. Consider 40mm the absolute minimum. Walk away from any rim that is less than 40mm. the K1's should be 42mm, just fine and they should be avaliable in 4x100mm fitments. If tirerack does not stock them in that size, I'm sure you can find someone that does.

    Sorry about the 35mm on this post, I have a friend with a 5th gen Civic with that offset that works fine. I was not completely certain about how it would work on a 3g. Nice rims, $159 is a decent price. Are you getting the white or grey ones?

    Well my Accord is the metallic blue, B-35M is the code if my memory is right. So basically I'd prefer the silver if they have them in the 4 x 100 but the white are starting to grow on me and if they only have them in white then white it is.
