Enkei Falcons
looking at getting rid of my factory S type wheels and installing Enkei Falcon's. Probably going to stick with 17" so can re-use tires. What offset do I need for the S type?

Do the standard TL wheels fit over the Brembo's for sure? I am looking to get a winter set of wheels for the Wife's TL-S. This is the first post I have found that they work, but I can't tell for sure you have a TL-S. I do see the Brembos, but it looks like aftermarket rotors?
I don't care for the look of standard TL wheels, but I can get a set fairly cheap, and keep my Type S wheels in nice shape.

Hey everyone. Been doing a lot of forum reading looking for the best fit for my 2008 TL-S.
I will be keeping my TL at Type-S height because I cannot get into my garage if I lower. Bagging the car is beyond my budget.
So looking for the best looking size of XXR 530 to clear Brembo and have function > form for my daily.
Thoughts on the two options?
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.

- 19" X 8.75" +35mm all around
- 18" X 9.75" +22mm all around
Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.

But your fenders would probably need some extreme work to clear those, especially in the front. That's a 45.4mm protrusion outward from the stock rims...

Help!! RPF1s 18x8.5 +40?
Can someone please let me know if this size will clear the brembos? Id like the gold RPF1s for my white TL-S but havent pulled the trigger for this reason.. Id like them to fit more or less flush with the fenders but if i need spacers or to roll the fenders.. Id rather not, but i might. If not what should i look for in 18"? Wider with a lower offset? Also interested in the GTC01RRs but idk..

18x8.5 +40 will clear Brembos. They will be very sunk in not flush at all with fenders.
Just something to look at when purchasing The RPF1 The design of the 8.5" and below and 9.0"+ is different.
I personally find the poking spokes ugly on the 8.5" and below wheels when looking at them from the side.
18x8
18x9.0
18x9.5
