Title: honda prelude wheels help
Post by: neimsn on 19 November 2008, 13:24:01

Hi everyone,
looking for some advice, i have a chance of getting four 17" rims from a Honda prelude really nice condition, and low profile tyres (45mm) the tyres are 205 45 ZR17. I have checked the PCD and they seem to match up only haven't had time to try them on the car yet.
before I buy them and try to put them on does anyone know if they will fit and clear all the working parts ok and if the centre caps with the vauxhall emblem on will fit them this appears to be the same diameter as the honda badged caps already on them any help would be much appreciated, if they are ok I plan on having them resprayed and laquered in star silver to match the car.
At the moment i have the standard five spoke cd wheels as fitted to the 2000 facelift model.

MV6's have 235/45/17 tyres fitted so can see a problem as long as the holes line up for the bolts.

Not only the PCD. Wheels need to be within the offset range of the miggy. :)

Sorry to be a little dumb but how do I determine the offset range and what is the maximum any ideas.

Ps I am new to this swapping wheels business but am desperate to get that individual look if you know what I mean :)
