18x8 OZ Antares - will it fit?

From my days of owning a 2001 CL, I have some barely used aftermarket OZ Antares, 18x8" wheels (5-lug, 114.3MM (4.5") bolt pattern) with Yokohama 225/40ZR18 88w AVS DB tires

I will hopefully very soon be back in Acura family with a 2010 RL.

Is there any way I can reuse those wheels/tires?

Nope. Wrong bolt pattern. Tires are way too small and far under the necessary load carrying capacity. Good chance they won't clear the front brake calipers as well. Just sell them and get something that fits properly.

Thanks for the info. That's unfortunate. Could I put some bigger tires to address the load and make the wheels work?

Sure get some bigger tires, but bid you miss the WRONG LUG pattern?

So now you got a lug adapter, new tires, and they still might not fit.

You guys are funny sometimes.

Oops i did read that, and even started doing some research, but then didn't quite understand what that meant (since they are both 5 lugs) ... so conveniently forgot about that being an issue
