Today I changed my rear size tires, to 275/30/19.
because the rear tires were rubbing the inside fender lip with 3 passangers in the back seat.
Front: wheels: 19x8.5 ( Off set = +35) + Tires: 245/35/19
Rear: wheels: 19x9.5 (Off set= +35) + Tires: 275/30/19
Note: Hub Center rings (Id= 64.1mm/ OD=72.6mm) on all 4 wheels . NO Spacer Needed.

wow...at first i thought those prices were PER wheel..but it's the whole set... they sell sets of 18" wheels for like $500-600 bucks...CHEAP!
if I could get a replica set of aspecs for that price i'd be all over it...
how does the quality look?
why were htey rubbing? is the offset not perfect? how is it now tha tyou have the new tire size? do the rears look really fat? an pics? you ought to take some from the back... 275 are FAT.
my boxster has 265s on teh rear..and they look FAT..granted it's a small car so the tires look fat reltaive to the car..but 275 are pretty wide...
does it handle better than before?
what springs are you running?
looks good!!

below pictures of my current tire size.
Front: wheels: 19x8.5 ( Off set = +35) + Tires: 245/35/19
Rear: wheels: 19x9.5 (Off set= +35) + Tires: 275/30/19
Back End Pic
Rear Tire Pic - 275/30/19
Front Tire Pic - 245/35/19
They are affortable rims, good looking. when I located the online store and look at their pics, i wasn't sure about the quality and appearance because of their price on a 19" wheels Set
, but they fool me once i opened the wheel box.

GREAT!! NEWs!!
Just installed the front tires today and as soon i got them on, I went for the parkway garden to revs Up the RL. The Tires size combinations
( Front 235/35/19 and Rear 275/30/19 ) paid off.
My car feels so much alive and runs way better, almost same feeling as running stocks wheels 17". I said this because low profile tires + big rims you feel the road way to much.
With this new tires set up You hit the pedal and car responds quickly. Went up to 80mph and didnt feel the vibrations on wheels as running 245/35/19.
I think and believe you can run staggered rims with the condition that maintain an Overall Diameter matched or 0.1% differrence + Rear wheels always running spedometer 0.1% SLOWER than Front Wheels.
By doing this, the AWD system will revs up rear wheels ( as supposed to )and NOT the Rear wheels running faster than the front wheels.
That was my problem, me running Front tires 245/35/19 making my Rear tires 275/30/19 to run 1% faster.
Hope this information help to anyone who is thinking running staggered wheels set up.

Ok I have a couple questions...
1. Did the stock TPMS Sensors fit right in without mods?
2. What emblems did you use for the center caps? Did you just pull them from the stock caps or get them from some other acura model?
