Default '04 wheel sizes

Does anyone have a line on a TO. wheel shop that has '04 wheel sizes/tires that will fit the '03 without sticking out past the fender lips? More specifically the name brand of the wheels. I don't want to order from the U.S. I really don't like the looks of the stock '04 Honda wheels, just MO. I would like to see the same '03 wheels in '04 sizes.

i don't understand your question....

I think he meant that he wanted the 5 spoke wheels ('00-'03 look) on his '04 but in 17"?

As far as I know, you can very well purchase a set of used '00-'03 (obviously in 16") and it'll fit your '04 just fine... the overall wheel (i.e. rim+ tire) diameter is the same. w/ 17" you are just riding lower profile tires.

However, if you MUST have 17" then do what Plyrs 3 said. Stock offsets for 16" are F: +45 R: +55 (???) not sure about the 17" though -- should be the same since the width of the rim is the same?

no the 2004 wheels are wider than '00-'03.....

F = 17x7.0 and R = 17x8.5

What I meant was, putting 17x8.5-245-40-17 on the rear and 17x7-215-45-17 on the front of a '00-'03. Has anyone done this here in Ontario and if so who did you deal with and why?. The S2ki website has a lot California, west coast owners with 17", 18" wheels but prices across the border are more realistic than our Can. $ prices.
