I have Eibachs' and I plan on getting either 17's or 18's and I can't decide which one's. If any one has pics of a SVT with 17's or 18's if you could please post them ...it will surely be of help.

How about this, 18x8's, 225/40-18's, H&R springs, Koni's, and does rub slightly in back.

C'mon ben, stop being mean to newbie's...the guy has 2 posts and your treating him like he's been here for a while.

N8U...what "ben" is trying to tell you is in the future try to use the search button, just to the left of the post reply button. this is actually a good search feature for this site. Alot of the topics new people ask about have already been asked and using the search feature usually pulls up the info you need or are asking for..."some people" get a little irritated because they don't have anything new to read or respond to. Feel free to ask for anything though, I will always try to help if I know the answer or where to find it...there are some of us here that don't mind helping.

Hey i was not rally being that mean to him i did alsotry t help out on what i know about the subject. It was just at the time had it in my head and i thought it was funny. I still think it is. i sadi after wat i kne. I think 18s are a waste. they kill you accel and there are not many styels to choise from. i woud rather go with something that i like then something that was big.
this was just my @ cents on the 18's. As for the song it was just a joke. i was not directig it at N8U.

By the wa i like your Member name.

I really appreciate the advice and the pics guys. This is actually my first time being in here as you can see. I am thinking about going with Volk's in a 17". But if I ever have anything I need to ask I know where to look for now. But I thanks again.

I dont think the Accord has the same bolt pattern as an SVT, here's 17's and H&R springs.
