18's with stock height should not rub...then again it depends on the tires...

18s on a unlowered car is gonna make your car look like a 4x4.

buddy just cause ur getting 18s doesnt mean you will have less wheel gap. wheel gap will "look" like more with 18s infact. it will look ike **** without a drop, get 17'ss with a high offset and drop the car on eibiach, your ride will be stock and it will look good.

Like what others have said..
Lower the car so it won't look like a 4*4.
You'll regret it in the end if you don't.

the lower profile tires will make the wheel gap more noticeable and end up mking your car look like crap after spending 2000+ on 18's. just lower about an inch with eibach pro kits. this will keep the car looking stock on 18's.

Mar 16th, 2006 01:15 PM #1018s can fit perfectly or they can rub - it depends on what size you ordered. Call up your local tire retailers - they can give you the exact answer you need - they have more experience and knowledge then any of us internet warriors.

18's on stock suspension look horrible.. esp on an accord.
get a drop first.
a drop will not make your ride look less classy..
if u don't drop it, and run on 18's u'll look ghetto_______________

Doing anything aftermarket to your car makes you look less classy.
Particularly with a accord
