RL_Coastin's 2006 Acura RL: PART 2
Swapped my 22 inch chromies for some 20x10s.
Had a cat back exhaust installed, 2.5 inch piping, magnaflows, and chrome tips.
Also got rid of some chrome trim.

love the wheels, hate the offsets

People in here are confusing the term offset when I'm sure they mean width. Did you have to roll your front fenders? I like this design and size much better.

I can't imagine he could turn without rolling the front fenders. Even 9" wide will scrape at full turn.

Thanks everyone! The offsets are +20 front and +20 rear with a 5mm spacer. So basically +15 for the rear. No spacers were needed, I have them on the rear by choice. And yes my fenders are rolled and pulled....ruined...
I'd love to get a Mugen kit, hopefully I can get my hands on one when I am ready to buy. I've seen a few pop up at random

Thank you! And these pics were before I ruined them. Tires hit both fenders on a bad turn and wrecked them. Car is now raised and doesn't rub what so ever. Never going that low and wide unless I run bags haha.

nothing to be embarrassed about. You wanted to join the herra frush movement lol!
Id be destroyed too. Nothing much you can do either than raise it up a cunt hair and get that shit reworked and repainted cuz that shit is going to rust up in no time.
I assume the rear fenders are ok? 10 inch wheel in the front is pretty extreme lol

You live and you learn haha. Luckily I live in Arizona so rust isn't a huge issue. I'm going to wait till I find an RL at a local junkyard and just color match the fenders, might take a while to find one. And yes rear fenders are in much better shape

What is this rain you speak of? Haha, I plan on covering the paint chip with some gloss black 3m vinyl, it somewhat blends with the OBP. It will be good enough till I find some fenders.

Of course haha, they are to be determined. I bought a set of 6 wheels with 3 different specs, I was looking for 19's but really dig these 20's, plus they were local and 3 piece. I can either go 8.5 in the front with 10 or 10.5 in the rear. Or 9.5/10.5 and very slight chance of going 10 front 10.5 rear. Not sure about offsets yet.
#36
Lmao, well I still haven't found replacement fenders....so in the mean time I have nothing to loose haha. But yea, that is what I am leaning towards 9.5/10.5, hopefully I can make that work with the current barrel/lip options I have. Just bought them last night, haven't had a chance to mess with them.

I would go 8.5".
J, the lip kits only cover the bottoms of the bumpers and replace the side skirts. The M1 flares teh CL mentioned would cover his damage.
OP, there is a rule of thumb that with wheels with a lip, add 1". The lip creates an illusion that the wheel appears smaller than wheels with a spoke all the way to the edge.
