    Here is a pic of my old MR2 that is sporting the rims that I am going to use on my Accord... and a closeup of one of the rims. I still have to have them polished, though, which is why they aren't on yet.



    *edit* Ack... Accord pics only, I forgot... well, there is the closeup, anyway.

    Regarding the use of Mr2 wheels on a 3g, good luck! The center bore on the mr2 wheels is narrower than that of a 3g, so they won't seat. I tried to put my dad's supercharged mr2 wheels (teardrops) onto my 3g and they wouldn't seat as a result of the bigger center bore on the honda. Maybe NA mr2s are different (?).

    I have only ever owned 17"s. I wouldn't ever buy anything smaller then 17", unless you aren't going for a ricey look. If you just want it to look nice, like a car a 50 year old would look at and go, 'Now that's a car I wouldn't mind owning', not that that's a bad thing, just depends on your style. I would only put 17" or up on my car, only the best for my rides (it helps that I only have to pay nearly half the price for them , lol)

    eh...

    You may notice from the pic that they aren't stock MR2 rims, but aftermarket... and will fit the 3g just fine. :cool2:

    Ah! never mind then...I just didn't want you to be super-disappointed like I was when the wheels didn't fit.

    It's ok... I think old school is cool, which is why I bought a 3g in the first place. IMHO newer style rims on an 80's Accord looks kinda dumb, but I know alot of people are into that kinda thing. Plus, they will look much better after they have been refinished.
