NEW Lightweight WHEELS & High-Performance TIRES Revealed!!! // 10th Gen. (2018+) Honda Accord

- Lightweight, strong, performance wheels made for racing... High-performance summer-only tires, sticky and wide, made to put all that horsepower and torque to the pavement! I reveal my NEW performance wheel and tire combination consisting of 18" Weds WedsSport SA-25R lightweight wheels, and sticky 265 / 40 / 18 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S track tires! I take you through the process I follow, which helped me in selecting my next set of aftermarket wheels and high-performance summer only tires for our 10th Gen Honda Accord project car! What are some of the things you should consider before purchasing your next set of summer tires and forged wheels? Tire type (i.e. winter tires, all-season tires, high performance summer only tires), tire size (where you can find your current tire size, or your OEM tire size), where to buy tires (Tire Rack, Discount Tire Direct, Priority Tire), and tire features / characteristics to consider that will help guide you in selecting the best tires for YOU! Tire tread wear / tread life, tire ride quality, tire noise, tire performance, tire cost, tire wet / dry traction, etc. Consider a wheel casting method, which is related to an aftermarket rim weight and wheel strength when purchasing your next set of aftermarket wheels, whether they're Volks, Rays, Gram Lights, Enkei, SSR, BBS, etc. We've now upgraded our 2019 Honda Accord 2.0 Touring, preparing it to take on 0-60mph testing, 1/4 mile track runs, and autocross (???)!

Man those rims look so nice on your car I really do appreciate you taken your time and own money to do all your research and buying all these equipment for your car for us guys who have the same car to make the car look good and make it faster!!
Thank you! I really like the WedsSport rims, but the Michelin tires are fantastic 👍😁
@@TheLemonFactor Just curious, what's the hub bore on your new wheels ?
Don’t remember off the top of my head, but it is on the spec sheet that I briefly show in the video 👍
Once again ! This channel literally testing and all doing all the work for the viewers … Legit info thank you 🙏
My pleasure! I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😁👍
I’ve had those wheels on my accord for 2 years now, it’s an amazing strong wheel! 👌
Good taste 😉. Glad to hear that you’ve had a good experience with them 👍
Looks great Chad! I am still on sport stock tires and rims. I am excited to see some numbers next. Thanks for the vid!!
Thanks! I’m still letting them breakin a bit before I push them hard. 😁
Love the wheel brother!🔥
Thank you, Tariq!
I also have a white 2.0 2020my and I wasn’t planning on getting rims because I like the sport rims but these just made me change my mind.
😂. I love them 👍😁
Your Stock wheels are already black, you made the right choice and color
👍
Awesome setup. I just wanted to add living in Colorado I noticed some rock chips on the sides of the car after going slightly wider and stickier.
I’ve definitely noticed the increase in fender well noise from the rocks / pebbles be kicked up. 😕
Great video
Thank you!
Awesome looking wheels Chad. I'm in a similar boat with you on the weight savings. I got the titan7 TS5 18X9.5 +40 these wheels are 18 ~ 19 lbs, I also forgot to account for the weight of the tires. The stock 19s & 235/40 Michelin primacy weight 60lbs. The titan 7 and the 265/35 Federal RS pro weigh at ~56lbs. I went with these as At the time these where the only size available at a reasonable price in my area all others where out of stock or brands I've not heard of. Love the grip on these on the street I can go faster around the turns and what not. I'll be giving them a try on AutoX. On thing I don't like about the tires is the noise. These is a noticeable hum at 30mph and above, sounds like a bad wheel bearing. Anyway Thank Chad, can't wait to see what you get for your 0-60 and at the 1/4 mile. Also if at all possible test the 60-0 on your tires also on your stock setup (I'm assuming you still have them) as these brake test could show how much potential grip these tires have.
I hadn’t considered testing the braking, but since getting the Michelin’s I’m tempted to - they’re that good 👍
I haven’t been keeping up. For someone just looking to tune what is your recommendation? Love the content.
Checkout the channel playlist as I have several videos covering KTuner, including a comparison of the KTuner Stage 2 ECU tune and the Phearable Stage 3 tune... including dyno charts comparing both.
As usual, a great video. Are you using spacers with the new wheel, or is it just the offset that is making them flush?
Just the wheel offset 👍
That would be a lack of research if you got new wheels and needed spacers lol
Looks so much better! IMO black wheels are overdone and played out. Good choice!
Thank you! 👍
My man!! Great choice, I have the Wedssport rn55 18x9.5 with 38 offset, have not mounted yet but guess I'll have a bit of poke with the offset. Love those wheels!
Thank you! Those RN55 look pretty nice! What tires are you going to be using with them?
@@TheLemonFactor well I was debating 255 vs 265 like I mentioned and now seeing them on your car and in Weds no doubt I will go with 265. As for tires I'm stock right now so probably just some performance all seasons, thinking the Michelin AS4
👍
Did you have any poke?
@@aznsaiyajindid you have poke? I’m thinking of these exact specs but different rim
Nice Tyres. Car looks so good
Appreciate it, Samari 👍
@@TheLemonFactor I have the 2.0 t manual with the phearable stage 3
And I must say I got the inspiration from you
Nice! How do you like the Phearable Stage 3 tune? Any issues with your K.con numbers?
Those black wheels you replaced are good looking also. Those weren't stock, correct?
The black wheels are OEM optional upgrades. I’m now using them as my winter wheels. 😁
Would love to see how these grip!
So far they feel great! However, I’m still breaking in the tires before I really see what they can do 😉
I'm looking into some 18x9.5 wheels with a +39 and +35 offset on a 255/40 tire. I feel they would poke out and could rub against the fender on bumps. Do you think I would need to roll my fenders or add some camber to accommodate them?
I don’t think you’ll have to roll your fenders… it may be close though 🤔
Btw, are you using the stock lug nuts? If so you need conical seat lugs instead. And are you using hub centric rings?
👍
12 lbs of rotating mass is significant. I believe rotating mass weight increase as it spins so multiplied by X amount of G's it's under your actually saving quite a bit
3lbs saved of unsprung weight IS more significant than 3lbs of sprung weight!
I need a little help with picking a set of wheels. I want to keep 19 diameter tho
Out of curiosity, have you taken a look at the inside of the glint black wheels? I’m just wondering if there’s any marking indicating what company made them. I know some older model honda wheels were made by enkei so curiosity has the best of me right now😂 if you have looked, lmk! Thanks! and love your channel!
I haven’t, but I’ll take a look… I’d really be surprised if they were made by Enkei. 🤔
@@TheLemonFactor well I just had them installed on my accord and I can confirm they are indeed made by enkei!
@PaNdAcCoRd I’m pleasantly surprised considering that they’re heavy, and that Honda isn’t using that to their advantage in marketing them 🤷♂️
@@TheLemonFactor same thing I thought when I looked on the back and saw the enkei logo. Still a few lbs lighter than the blades though! I put some conti extremecontacts on them and it’s ride smoooooth! It’ll hold me over until I decide to make a weds or work wheel purchase! Love your channel btw keep it up!!
Appreciate your support - thank you! 😁
Ordered Konig Oversteer Opel color. 19 x 8.5 Offset 45. Lightest I could find for the price.
👍
Hey Chad. If you could have gotten a stock size 19 inch wheel that weighed 20 pounds, would you have stayed with a 19? Or is there other reasons besides weight, to go down to a 18" wheel? Perhaps more side wall rubber for protection against pot holes etc? I'm thinking of going 265/35/19 as I found a 19" wheel that weighs 20 pounds each. But where I'm from we have crap roads so I've been debating going 18s. There not much difference in weight between the 19 and 18 set up. What is your opinion of this? Thanks
I was looking to increase the width of the tire for more contact patch and reduce the overall weight, but I wanted to do so without changing the overall wheel diameter from stock. The size I chose was the best combination in order to do so.
What is your opinion on 20" x 8.5" wheels? Flow one makes some lightweight wheels in that size. Will these be too big and decease performance?
Will the overall weight (including tires) be less than the OEM? Are you increasing the contact patch? And are you putting new stickier tires on? If so, send it 😉
Great looking wheels ! I have a set of RTX 17 inch wheels for the winter with snow tires and the difference is very noticeable, the car is faster and gas mileage is better too. They are much lighter than the stock 19s.
That’s got to be a big weight savings going from the 19s to 17s. I’m sure they ride better too 👍
@@TheLemonFactor The car actually rides much better and 100% feels quicker. I am saving about 7 and a 1/2 pounds per wheel and tire.
That’s a tremendous weight savings 👍. I’m sure it’s a night and day improvement.
Yes for sure! And when i purchased the 17s for the winter, I wasn't thinking about weight savings, I just wanted a winter set without breaking the bank , but the difference they have made , like you said, is night and day. I don't look forward to swapping back to the stock 19s in the summer anymore . On another note, Have you done any kind of engine cleaning? I know at some point carbon build up is an issue. I don't know if Honda recommends it in their maintenance schedule, I am going to ask my local honda dealer. Thanks !
Yes,. My 2022 Touring 2.0 wheels and tires weigh almost 60 pounds .
Hey Chad, if you don’t mind me asking, what are the website links for the wheels and tires? I’m looking into buying them for my accord.
I just updated the video description to include the link to the Weds website, the company I purchased the wheels from, and a link to Priority Tire, which is where you can buy the tires from. With that said, you can buy the tires elsewhere, but if you use the link the description for Priority Tire, it will help out the channel!!! Thank you.
Good choice!
They’re growing on me 😉
@@TheLemonFactor I felt the same way at the begining . Then after seeing them on the car a while I like mine.
It’s different. I got used to the black. However, I do notice I look back at them a lot 😎
@@TheLemonFactor you did well because I went dark grey metallic. Which isn't full on black neither and you notice the wheels more . It looks better than full black imo.
Agreed. I still have a darker look without getting another set of black rims.
I think pure black looks a bit too dark imo. So this looks really nice. That weight of tire surprised me as well. Little weight reduction is better than nothing. Now it will be interesting to see the results. I'm gonna wait a while on rims n tires. Now prepare yourself for what I'm about to say. I'm waiting cuz I think im going to at least try to sell my Accord n get a Corolla GR if they are even available n not way marked up. I've always been partial to Honda but i like Toyota almost as much and this GR seems like it will be awesome.
Oh, I don’t think you’re going to have a problem selling your Honda Accord. Getting the GR Corolla is another story. I was looking myself, and came to the conclusion that if I’m going to get one I’ll have to wait a couple years, or pay out the nose 😵💫. Please let me know what you end up doing - I’m sure it’s a fun car😁👍
sup chad quick question i’m trying to get my accord to get that concave look. i’m running the stock rims and tires 235/40/19 and looking to purchase rims with a 35mm offset so will putting aftermarket rims and maybe adding spacers will make the tires pop out more cause i know rims with a low offset are pricy ahah
👍. But did you have a question 🤔?
@@TheLemonFactor will adding spacers on aftermarket rims give me that concave look ?
On stock rims, with spacers, no. It will push the wheels out to give you some poke.
@@TheLemonFactor no i’m buying some aftermarket rims same size just bigger offset
Hey chad, quick question. I recently tuned my accord with the ktuner v2 and my k.con is perfect right around .49 but I notice after 2 hours of driving it’ll show a knock count of 11. Is this something to worry about?
First off, I'm by no means an expert. With that said, as your K.con remains around 0.49, your good - this is the more important reading to monitor. A K.count value of 11 over a period of 2hrs of driving is not too concerning, especially if it happened gradually over that time. If you had a count of 11 within 10 mins of driving the car, I would be concerned. Hope this helps.
@@TheLemonFactor that does help. I backed off from stage 2 down too stage 1 simply because of my lack of knowledge of these things and I don’t want to blow my motor. I also noticed I’m throwing 5° of knock retard under wot.
Why not go with a 20ich wheel with that size tire? I'm looking to go 20in wheel with 255/35? Should I reconsider because I dont like the 18in look?
Weight savings - the 20” wheel would be heavier than the 18”.
@TheLemonFactor makes sense! Thank you for the response
👍
Qq, is there a reason you went with offset of 45 vs 38? I thought 38 would be flush to the fender. A lot of setups I see, with a width of 9.5 have 38 offset. But yours looks flush with the 45 offset. It’s so confusing .
I don’t get it either😂
Based on my research I thought the +45 would give me what I was looking for, which it did 👍. The difference between 38 and 45 isn’t huge, and maybe it’s the angle it’s viewed at 🤷♂️
Hey brother did you end up selling the OEM black wheels ?
I still have the black Honda accessory wheels 👍
where you bought the wheels? directly in their website??
I purchased them from Evasive Motorsports - the link is in the description 👍
hi what are the best spark plugs for the stage 3 tune
?
You don't need to change your spark plugs with the Phearable Stage 3 ECU tune.
Is there any rubbing with the 265's?
None that I’ve heard. I did some hard mountain twisties today and will go out to visually check, but I didn’t feel or hear any 👍
I have Advan GT Beyond on Advan AD09 tires. 2020 2.0sport 6sp
👍 Stock tire size?
@@TheLemonFactor 265/35/19. 9.5+38
Is there any rubbing or scrubbing while driving ??
None at all 👍
Great so stock would work with those
how long did it take for the wheels to be delivered?
I think it was more than a week, but less than two 🤔
I have work d9r 18x9.5 +23 wrapped in falken azenis rt615k 265/35 on my accord
Nice setup. How do you like the tires?
@@TheLemonFactor tires are great for a summer tire, and if you can justify the cost/mileage of a 200tw . Feel more confident in corners, and you mentioned stopping. Well I had to slam on my brakes and no skidding and deff noticed better stopping power. Will say they are a bit noisy at highway speeds. I'd recommend 👍🏼
It’s tough to get a good summer only tire that also rides well, AND isn’t too noisy 👍
@@TheLemonFactor yeh it's only around like 40-50mph that the noise happens least for me.
OK, Chad, why do you call the wheels rims? I like their looks.
Rims are the metal part, tires are, well, tires, and wheels are the tires mounted to the rims 👍😁
To many, the rim is the outer edge of the wheel. And tires are tires. I know many car guys cringe when wheels are called rims 😂 I could care less what people call them lol
@@gabrieleredia7157 I cringed. 😆
I Had the same ugly factory 19s on my touring. I swapped them out, put snow tires on them.
I’ll be keeping them as my winter set too 👍
Remember your tires will need to be broken in first before it'll show optimal performance :)
Very good point. Thank you for pointing that out 👍. I’ve been using every excuse to get out a drive the car to continue to test them out 😁
Waiting to see how the tires will impact the acceleration from 0 km/h
Agreed i have hvi downpipe hasport mounts pherable stage 3 with 19 x9.5 rims firestone firehawk indys and i still spin a lot at a dig
Me too… 😉
What size tires are you running on the 9.5 rims?
@@lqsclan2078 really? I have the same setup, with 255/35/19 and hasport upper mount and I don't spin from a dig, my traction light will come on for a bit around 5-6k rpm but no spins. I'm also tuned stage 3 with DP, intake, and borla.
Good looking wheels. Disappointed in the weight savings department.
Thank you! Me too… however, there’s still the potential to save another 3# depending upon the type of tire used in the future 🤷♂️
Did you get the 265/35 or 45?
Checkout the video for your answer... or the description.
@@TheLemonFactor Hey Lemon,
Did you by any chance have any issues with turning with these tires?
Or did I miss a video on you upgrading the fenders or rolling them out.
I did not role the fenders, and haven’t exactly any rub 👍😁
Need your old rims
I’ll be using those with my winter tires 🤷♂️
whats the offset
The offset is +45 😁
