How can these even be an option when the bolt pattern doesn't match?!

NO, these won't fit. I suggest you do a lot of reserach into wheels that fit the TL. I was doing alot of homework ( 2 months ) to find the best wheels that would fit my car, budget, and style. Take some time to find wheels. Do not rush it for the TL.

For 17x7 wheels, you need an offset of 45+
For 18x7.5 wheels, you need an offset of 48+.

These wheels will rub on your car.

Does 5x4.5 = 5x114?




EDIT:

IGNORE me.

5-114.3 DOES = 5-4.5 :smackhead

Yup, it can't be quite confusing sometimes.
