2006 Acura Rl M5 Rims

I bought m5 Replica from oemwheelsplus there matte black 19'' staggered. The one in this picture is the front 8.5 but its an idea of what it will look like. I'm just waiting for 245/35/19 to arrive on Tuesday i have the 275/35/19 in my garage. my plan is to get h&r springs but since im 16 my dads definitely not gonna let me. im also gonna get acura wheel caps. let me know what you think. ill have pictures as soon as they get put on!

Those wheels are heavy.
No center caps
You get what you pay for....

They look cool though. Post pics when you get them on.

FYI...if you put 19s on your car you HAVE to lower it or it will look bad.... It will look like RL 4x4!

Aspecs don't drop it enough...you will need h&r springs....

If the tire diameter is within 2% of stock, why would it look bad?

someone else had these on their RL so they do fit and I had the m3 reps but they were 8.5 all around and you can just pop stock centercaps in just get them powdercoated too

Someone posted that H&R springs won't lower the front end enough though?
Not to hijack the thread but I agree on lowering the car with bigger wheels, just need to find the best way to do so without spending 2G on coilovers

If he gets these for a good deal he's better off than going w/o springs at all with no springs at all. Not all people including myself like the slammed look. I think A-spec's will look fine. The wheels will sit flush with the wheel wells vs. being tucked under (gross).

Just my stereotyping prejudice here, but I bet a 16 year old is going to go for slammed. They tend to either jack them up or slam them down.

I thought H&Rs gave over an inch drop all around. With a lip kit that causes you to have to enter dips at angles. Do you need lower?

The h&r give you an even drop. It only appears to have a bigger gap up front cause the fender cut out is bigger up front. Its 2fingers up front and 1 1/2 finger gap in the rear. And they dont give me any ride issues what so ever. The springs were made for the stock struts so they are not a aggresive spring rate.
