Pics of my new Rims
Thought I'd share some pics of my new rims. Yes I know I need a drop, I was thinking just an aspec since I commute quite far. Let me know what you think.
Rims sizes are 19 x 8.5 in front with 245's and 19 x 9.5 in the rear with 275's. I know our cars aren't RWD, but I do love the look of a staggered setup. Huge Lip doesn't hurt either.

staggered FTW looks good so what is the offset. 275 is huge I can tell you this you will rub front and rear depending how low you want to go but expect it to rub especially in the rear unless you run smaller tires.

definitely agree with that

Yeah, that's 4x4 status man. You can't even drop that car - the fenders will flat-out hit the tire, let alone just rub.
Not feeling it. But, if you're happy, I guess that's worth it...

Actually I bought these rims off another member off the other board. He was running Tein coilovers and he was slammed over 2.5 inches. Here is a link to his pics of his TSX. He did have to roll his fenders, which I already did, so all I need is my suspension.
Here's a link to that member's car. Hope he doesn't mind. I'm happy with the setup.

I agree, I think they look clean however they do seem to be sticking out of the fender considerably a low offset? Anyway I do agree with others in the sense that you’re going to run into issues when lowering. How much do you think they weigh notice any power loss in torque off the line etc?

Don't matter if you are roll + running alot of -camber to make the 275 barely fit and is sticking out like a mofo you will rub when you hits those big bumps and ride is going to be suck. To run staggered on a TSX without worrying about rubbing issues and major fender rolling and still ride nice the maximum width and offset for the front is 8.5+42 and for the rear 9.5 +44 and up so keeping +42 offset and higher you are going to be fine. I can tell you now that looking from the back with the 275 tires is ulgy as hell. On my setup I ran 235/265 with 8.5/9.5 I have rubbing issues already and I didn't like the look of 265 cause it has alot of sidewall so I swap to 225/245 and it looks nice, flush and worry free and not stretch by any mean and still has alot of sidewall left.
