Accord Wheels On Solara

I am wondering if a set of 2003 Accord Wheels (4cyl EX) will fit my 2001 Solara SE 4cyl. It seems like the bolt pattern is correct but I don't know about the center bore and other factors. Any help is appreciated.

The offset on the Accord wheels are too high for the Solara, so they will not work with out modifications. The center bore and bolt pattern are good though.

What are the offsets on the Solara 4cyl SE and the 2003 Accord? I thought they were both pretty close. Thanks so much for your help.

What modifications would need to be done to make them work?

2003 Accord SE wheels are 16x6.5 with a 55mm offset
Your Solara has an offset range recommendation of 35-40 for a 6.5" wide wheel.

Here are the recommended offset ranges for your solara

Wheel width * Offset ranges
6.0 ------------ +35/+45
6.5 ------------ +35/+40
7.0 ------------ +35/+40
7.5 ------------ +35/+45
8.0 ------------ +38/+40

These are 17x7 with a 55 Offset. These also, may be too high of an offset. The tire size would be great though.
You'd have to test fit them to see what you would need to do. higher offsets make the wheels tuck more and the more a wheel tucks the closer it comes to interfering with brake and suspension components.

Hope this helps some.
