borbet rims

I know I can prolly find this answer myself, however this site wants me to make 5 post before I can become a real member. So I just got a 2003 acura tl and a friend has some old borbet rims off an old vw. I don't know much about fitting aftermarket rims on a car but both sets of rims have 5 lugs. But i don't really know about lug patterns and all that. Anyway I'll try to attach pics of the rims if that helps. Thanks for the feedback in advance. - Patrick

Won't work. The TL has a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, while VW's have a 5x112 bolt pattern.

I like these enkei ev5 rims. I think they would look good on a black tl. Let me know if they are a decent company and if you think that matt bronze finish would look sweet on a black tl.

He was suggesting websites. And honestly it all depends on the route you want to take. (JDM, VIP, luxury/sport, DUB)
