Wheel question... (rota slipstreams)

was woundering if these will fit: http://www.machiii.net/wheels/Rota_Slipstream.html

wanted to get 16x7 or 16x8, not sure if 16 will be too small and clear caliper. one more thing is that i think the centerbore on these is like 73mm (and stock is 64.1mm), do i HAVE to use hubcentric rings or not? thanx.

^^I'd recommend hub centric rings. You want the hub to take the load more than the lugs.

Ehh, save those wheels for civics. They'll look too small on a TSX

A better question would be, why would you want it to fit?

atleast 18" or stay stock

They look great on Civics and Integras. This car is just too big for them though.

If your gonna get some make sure they are 17+ at least.

Regamasters/ Spoon wheels i think look better on sport compacts IMO.

I had my 16" Spoon wheels on couple times. They are my track wheels for my Prelude, however if my Prelude is out of commission and I take the TSX to the track, sometimes I'll put these on. Here is a pic.
