I remeber it was talked about that the CLS rims wouldnt fit b/c they had a 7 inch diamiter vs 6.5 on the CLP. Will TL-S rims fit the CL-P? How about the 99 TL rims.

No the TL-S rims are only 6.5 inches! Look at a CL-S and a TL-S side by side. If you saw a seven inch rim on a TL-S. The only thing I can think is that the dealer switched them to see if they would fit!

So will the TL-s rims fit the cl-p?

If the offset is the same as the CL-S rim then they might fit the CL-P. Acura says that the CL-S rim is to wide to fit the CL-P, so maybe the TL-S rim being 1/2" narrower will fit.

Personally, I think that a CL-S rim will work on a CL-P with about a 5-10mm spacer plate, aftermarket shops use these all the time. Hell, even Dinan quotes prices for the spacers with thier wheels for BMW'S!!

the rims on the CL-S bubble out a little more than the TL-S. I don't know if it's because of the .5 difference in the width....

My brother with the TL-S even said they look a little different.

Cross-section and offset are identical on the TL-S rims and the CL-P rims. Acura DID NOT change suspension geometries on the TL to TL-S upgrade like they did on the CL to CL-S. Just thicker sways, bushings, and springs for the TL-S.

So, to answer the question......yes, TL-S rims on a CL-P will fit perfectly.
