These would be great winter wheels. The gunmetal color wouldn't have to get cleaned nearly as much as my silver Advans...

23lbs?! weighs alot for performance rims. I was hoping to replace the stock rims with a nice looking lightweight rim. If i'm correct, these HFP (honda factory "performance") rims weigh more than stock tsx rims, right?

According to the website they are 27lbs shipping weight. I imagine that there is about five pounds or so with the box.
Let me know if you can get a better deal. $166 seems like a pretty good deal for wheels.

shipping to NYC via UPS ground is only $90 bucks.
damn. i really want new rims, but i've been holding out b/c i really have no place to put the stock ones which i'd want to save for the winter. and i was hoping to get the ronjon legends in liquid graphite.
but you can get these in 18"s for $760 shipped.

I have my 18" HFP silvers coming for my 07 CGP TSX either Friday or Monday.
Will try to get a pic up when they are installed. Havent ordered any special centercaps, figured i might be able to use the stock ones. Guess not?
My main concern is the TPMS censors. The $260 bux per wheel i got quoted is because they come with TPMS i am told. But thats for a civic. Does it work with the TSX or do i need new TPMS censors? Also, how do you get the vehicle to recognize the new TPMS? I didnt know how it could tell front left, from front right, etc.

Anyone know if it will be okay to run a 215/40/18 tire? I know the speedo will be off.

215/45/18 Kumho ECSTA ASX [Brand New Size] on the 18" Silver HFP wheels.
Noone can answer the TPMS question for me? =[ I'd hate to have to unmount, swap TPMS and re-mount the tires.

You could always buy just the HFP wheels and the tires separately... that might save you some money, I know there are a lot of people selling 18" and 17" HFP wheels on ebay with and without tires.
If you need ton buy a set of the sensors, they're on sale used:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4-ACU...spagenameZWDVW
Or you can swap out the sensors from your OEM wheels into the new HFP wheels. Typically you can go to any of the wheel shops or the dealer and they'll charge from $100 to $200 for the installation of the TPMS sensors. Hope that answers your question. Good luck and post pics after you get the new wheels

Getting the wheels and tires pre-mounted from a friend who has a friend at a dealership. So i get his discount. Thats why I'm getting them together.
Either the sensors work or i will have to tear it all apart and put some in that do.
So no need to disconnect batteries, etc?

using the sensors from your tsx wheels might work. i asked this question of the folks at college hills honda via email and they said to have a look at this podcast:
http://www.diyhonda.com/2007/12/podc...c-tpms-in.html
further, they said: "You would need to reuse the sensors you currently have but I can’t guarantee fitment of those sensors in the wheels. My guess however is they will fit like the Civic sensors do in the video link above."
so your best bet would be to get your tpms sensors out of your tsx wheels 1st, and supply them to your friend prior to installation at the dealership.
hope this helps and let us know how it goes.

Well from what i was told from the guy on ebay who sells the used sensors they will not work between civic -- > TSX. instead of chancing that hes wrong i ordered a set to have the dealer install for me so i don't have to re-mount and balance them later on. So i'd say to do the same. This way for 100 bux i get a whole other set of wheels and tires i can use or sell instead of having to swap TPMS every time i swap wheels.
