Default Will Accord 2008 Steel Wheels fit in the 2007 Accord Hybrid ?

Hi, I am a happy new owner of a 2007 Accord Hybrid, I live in MN and I am planning to buy Winter Tires, the stock one do not behave very good in the snow, It is not easy to find steel wheel in the middle of the winter, though I found this in eBay that seems to be compatible:

Currently I have the 16" wheels, the stock ones that the Hybrid comes with, What do you think?, thanks a lot

Bernard

I would think they fit, however, I don't know for sure.

You may be able to go to a website that sells wheels and see if you can look up wheel sizes for both cars. Try www.tirerack.com or a similar site. Make sure you check bolt pattern/spacing as well as any offset.

Thanks I went to tirerack.com and selected the wheels (rims) for 2007 Accord Hybrid and 2008 Accord EX-L V6, and it gave me the same wheels, meaning they should be compatible.

I have a 2006 HAH, and I changed wheels from the stock one to a more sporty
10 prong (5 double prong) honda stock wheel, but they had to grind down the front
brake calipers on the outside edge, for them to fit; actually only a minor modification,
didn't hurt the wheels or the calipers. (Honda intentionally didn't want the sportier
stock wheel to fit) - but we changed that!
