    current picture of the Rear. going to drop the front and ill take somebetter pictures once i do


    Hey my name is Jaison
    I Live in Atlanta Ga
    I bought this 1988 Honda Accord DX hatchback a month ago after my 82 accord hatch got totaled







    2days later went to go buy these wheels i saw for sale
    (only picture i could get from the previous owner)



    got there and it was more lip than i expected lol but fuck it i bought em with out a test fit and because i got em for a VERY good price btw they are 13x7j lol and the stock wheels were 13"s so why not stay on 13" but a bit wider?
    doesnt say offset on the wheel but the offset look like its in the middle middle of the wheel so im guessing like 0 offset?idk


    Lowered the car later on that day

    Same day i bought wheels i lowered the car.
    after i lowered the car i switched out the tires from the stock wheels to the wheels i bought earlier that day i dropped the car off at a tire shop and came for it mad late like around 5 50somthing something and they were about to close at 6 and they already mounted the tires on the wheels but only put the wheels on the back and they said the front and back have to much poke that the fenders were siting on the tires that i couldnt drive it so i just raised the front and put the wheels on and rode mexi poke

    That night i ordered the smallest tire size i could find for the 13x7j because I'am tryna get some stretch, tuck tire & be stanced!!

    5days later i come home to this after work


    155/65 r13


    155/65R13 tire stretch on 13x7j getting balanced


    and on the way home somthing fell off somguys truck on GA400 and i tried to avoid it but it was too late ...i couldn't tell what went under my car but it started making a knock/tapping/rattle/dragging noise under the hood so i pulled over noticed the battery light came on and then popped my hood and noticed that that my pulleys were naked lol and i noticed a pulley behind my car ,and remember seeing belts flying from rear view mirror when it happendand then the car started to smoke from the coolant reservoir so i turned off the car ,waited like 15 minutes and drove it to the nearest exit parked it at some wendys came for it the next day and drove it home but i would pull over and turn off the car once the car started to smoke/to warm up
    and it got to a point where i guess i started smoking from the radiator and not the coolant reservoir any more and like 3 weeks later i got finally got someone to take out the rest of the broken crankshaft/harmonic balancer pulley bolt out
    so got that fixed and replaced the belts except power steering because i could use the extra money lol, started it up and let it run for a while saw it smoking from the hood and i said oh shit i forgot to put collant and than i bought some,,poured half of it in and then noticed it was pouring out the bottom and so i noticed the radiator was busted ...so i bought a new one and now i can drop the front more
