Anyone done it? I found a set of 2005 RL wheels for $200 for sale locally and thinking about running them as a winter set on an 02 RL.

Has anyone done this? It's a good price. Are there any pictures of this set up floating around?

Thanks in advance.

 

Never mind. I just did some searching and 05+ are 5x120.

Sorry for the wasted web space.

/thread

 

Its all good. Someone else will search for this (hopefully) and learn what you have

 

I got very excited.

 

How about first gen TSX rims?

 

They'll fit

 

I'd imagine they'd look pretty good too...hmmm...

Anyone have photos of what this would look like?

 

I'd love to see the 06+ wheels on an RL. Anyone photoshop?

 

04-05 TSX rims look great on 1G TL. RL got same kinda body lines so I am pretty sure they will look great on RL too..

 

What do you guys think of the Genesis 19" wheel?

Found a local sale, thinking about going to check if it'll fit the RL once I pick it up. It is a staggered set up though... 19x8 and 19x8.5

 

Those are pretty cool, actually. They would look alot better (imo) if they had a little lip to them. But still cool, none the less.

 

Genesis wheels are sold.

I'll just stick with stockies.

 

Out of all the RL wheels, the '02 looks the best

 

03-04's are best

 

I agree with that.

I believe they went from a 15" in 01 to a 16" in 02.

 

Straight from Acura:

The 2002 Acura 3.5 RL is equipped with wide P225/55R16 Michelin tires (up from 215/60R16 Michelin in 2001)

You should all check the Acuranews.com under the Archive section, look up the different years for the RL and see what changes they made.

I'll make a sticky and a model year post.

 

This one is only for you vas25tl...
Caught this RL with TL-S rims today, looked great...

 

^Thanks! That does look really good. I always wanted TL-S rims for my TL but I have the 2.5 with 4 lugs - never had many options.

I think you just pushed me into the right direction, thank you.

 

i believe those are from a CL-S; i would get the CL-S because they're 17x7 while the TL-S is only 17x6.5.

 

Good to know!

 

CL-S wheels are tough to find but worth it

 

Ahhh... TL-S, CL-S same thing to look at...

 

Agreed. I'd love to get my hands on a set of '02 wheels. They're my favorite RL wheels, along with the '98 "Special Edition" wheels.

Vas, you seriously thinking about parting with your '02 wheels?

 

If I do, I'd keep the stock wheels..

Tried these babys on yesterday:

I might just stay stock though and save up for an e30 again. This would be my 3rd.

 

you want a set of '02 wheels? i can have mine listed for sale in the classified section for you to check it out if you're interested.

sorry to be off topic a bit.

 

You got rims on yours?

 

i got CL-S wheels on mine. my stock wheels + tires w/ 70% treadlife are just collecting dust in the garage.

 

pics of a silver (I'm assuming) rl with cl-s wheels?

 

 

20% tints?

Southridge?

Rims look nice!

 

14% tint all around. a state trooper pulled me over and tested it with his little tint machine. got a warning.... and yes, first pic was at southridge.

 

How much are you looking to get for your wheels/tires? What kind of tires?

 

tires are yokohama avid v4 all-season tires in size 225/55/16 with roughly 70% left all around. wheels have minor surface scratches from usage and balance weights. no cracks, bends or any deep scratches; tires are in excellent condition with even wear. looking to get $350 for all 4. since you're local, save on shipping.

 

See Vas25tl, you need tints. That looks good But you know i'm biased towards tints.

 

Silver3.5, I wouldn't park so close to other cars in Southridge unless you are looking to get new paint soon. you know how Milwaukeans are on slamming their doos in other cars.

 

i know what you mean...and it's a pain to see a new door ding every time after going to a crowded place..like the mall or theater. most of the time, i always park far away from everybody else..trying to avoid door dings. but regardless, there will always be those that will do it on purpose. people are so disrespectful these days....

 

whoa thought that was my car at first,

I got a question though, what's the best size tires on TL-S rims on an RL? I think I have 255/45/17 right now and I don't like it at all

 

do you have any pics? why don't you like it? i was actually thinking of going 235/45/17 but not sure how it'll fit and look.

 

I think 255's may be a little wide.

I'd go with a 235 MAX, stock is 225.

What do you have on there now?

 

actually I think i have either 235 or 245 /45/17. I have to go out and look and take a pic.

I guess I don't like it because of the wheel well gap and I feel a lot of the road which I think is because of the thinner 45?
