Check out my new rims!

Just got my new rims and tires on, 18" RSL Ricochets with 42 offset and Toyo Proxies (225's).

Lookin good The lip matches the window trim, never really noticed that before with that style of rim but it looks good!

you should get some spacers and push out the rear tires. Offset is way too conservative on those rims.

Nice!

My TSX is NBP and I've thought about Black wheels with a polished lip.

I'm curious, I know that the wheels were black when you bought them, but did you have them repainted NBP so that they match the TSX perfectly or is that not necessary?

The Toyos are awesome, worth every penny IMO

I plan on it, i forgot to tell the shop who did the install to compensate for the extra inch of rim, so now its an inch higher than it was before. As soon as i get a camber kit, im gonna lower it again, i just dont want to mess up my tires with uneven wear.

Nope, not necessary at all.

Car looks good. Matches the car very well.

42 may be conservtive for other cars but he is pushing the limits on a TSX. He can't go much further without the risk of rubbing.

First off, you should search. Plenty of discussions.


Second, I'll just say what tsxdriver would probably say.
