Been contemplating on getting an Accord Touring 2.0T and upon my research for a winter set-up I found these. SInce I am on the Volkswagen side of car enthusiasm at the moment, a lot of forum members over there have been using RTX steel wheels and have reported nothing but positive feedback. If you check the reviews an Si owner chimes in on his purchase also.

PS - SInce this is my first post the forum won't let me post an Amazon link due to spamming? Anyway just copy and paste this into Amazon's search bar:

Hi I just joined this forum when I saw this post. I just bought a brand new 2018 Accord EX and I live in Montana and always like to have a set of snow tires on their own rims, preferably steel. The ones you show here are like what I'd be interested in. I also found these on Amazon. I'm wondering if this would work? It looks like the offset is 50cm where I think the OEM aluminum wheels on the car are 45cm offset. It would be great to know either of these will work, I'm far from an expert on this sort of thing.

Ah, just saw on the Amazon review of these wheels that someone has them on their 2019 so I'm thinking these should be good. They are the same size, offset and bolt pattern so should work right?

i would buy 1 wheel first just to try out the fitment. I would do it but don't have an Accord yet lol Tbh, they look good to go!

I'm thinking that the inner hole diameter 64.1 is the only possible issue, I'll have to confirm that. I'm also thinking that the tire pressure monitoring won't work? Then I'm wondering if the stock lug nuts will work with the steel rims or maybe get some old school lug nuts for winter use.

 

[mtdave]

I found a site, wheel-size.com and looked up my car and it confirms center bore of 64.1 so I'm certain these will work.

It also looks like carid.com carries steel wheels it says will fit the car.

 

[mtdave]

Alright, so I see that the newer Accords use the ABS system to test for tire pressure changes in the tires and there are no sensors in the wheels themselves. No worries then about having TPMS sensors in the tires. Should be able to just buy the wheels and put tires on them and then run the calibrate after they are mounted, balanced and installed.

So I bought one of these on Amazon and tried it on the car and it fits good. I went ahead and ordered three more.

The stock lug nuts tightened down but they seem barely deep enough to do it so I think I'll either get some old school lug nuts or some deeper ones. I also need to find a cap to fit over the axle hole but it looks like there are a lot of those available on Amazon too.

It totally looks like a Montana car now. We have our Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 snow tires and we are ready. Bring it on!
I ordered a set of small center caps.

 

[mtdave]

Hi, I picked up these caps on Amazon "Skino 4 x 60mm Car Rims Wheel Center Hub Caps C 0" and I got these stick-on emblems for the caps "4 x 56.5mm Car Lettering BBS Wheel Center Cap Sticker Wheel Emblem Badge Logo Stickers fit Honda Accessory". I don't have them yet so still hopeful that they will fit but I'm pretty sure. They have a lot of other stuff like this.

You should probably make sure that the wheels are the right size for a 2017.

 

[mtdave]

Cool. Sounds good. I see a lot of wheels that look just like them around here on various cars with snow tires.

 

[mtdave]

The caps that I bought work great on the back wheels and fit nicely inside the inner hub. They are too flat for the front wheels though and they don't come anywhere near clearing the axle nut. I haven't had a chance to look for anything different that may clear the nut.
