All you need is the right wheel dimensions and offset.

The hubs on the e are 5x114.3mm PCD studs, and the stock dimensions and offsets are:

16" Rims:
  • Front: 6x16 ET50 - 185/60R16 - Offset range is 48-52mm
  • Rear 7x16 ET45 - 205/55R16 - Offset range is 43-47mm
17" Rims:
  • Front: 6.5x17 ET55 - 205/45R17 - Offset range is 53-57mm
  • Rear:7.5x17 ET50 - 225/45R17 - Offset range is 48-52mm
I've been looking at a set of summer wheels myself. I already have two sets of OEM Honda wheels with the car, the all black 17" wheels from the Limited Edition and a set of regular 17" OEM wheels that I bought with the car as winter rims. The 17" Limited Edition wheels are in storage with no tires on them, as I want to keep them in case I come to sell the car at some point (not sure if I ever will though!). The regular 17" wheels with the silver accents are on the car with winter tires, so I think these will be my winter wheels going forward.

I've been looking at a few options for fitment when it comes to a set of summer wheels, but haven't decided yet between 17" and 18" rims.

If I'm going 17" I'll probably go 7.5x17 ET45 with 225/45/17 rubber all around to even out the rim widths, this will mean I'll get +10mm strut clearance on the inside of the rim, plus the wheel will be 10mm further out in the arch on the front. The figures will be +5mm on the rear. Not sure if I'll also want to add spacers, but I'll probably see how the general wheel fitment looks first.

18" gets a bit more tricky, and I'm still looking at what offsets and wheel width would be better there, but I'll probably be 8x18 at a ET30 with 225/40/18 rubber all around, that should give about the same internal clearance at the front, and step the front wheels out by 24mm. The rears should be about 9mm more in terms of internal clearance, and 20mm or so stepped out in the arches.

Still doing math and figuring it out, wondering what the best combo would be, but there's a few aftermarket wheel threads on this forum you can take a look at!
