will 18x8.5 et35 fit a 01 tl on stock suspension possibly H&R springs without rolling the fenders?

vtotheu

I just picked up a set of Acura A-Spec wheels in the gunmetal finish 18x8. I know that they will bolt up to my 03 TL-S. But with them being 18x8 will they stick out alot? Would I need to play with camber, spacers or anything like that? Any help would be great. Thanks guys!

I'm new to the forum and have a 2002 TL. I'm currently shopping for wheels FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. If I lower my car 1.5'front/1.75back', what size wheel and tire would keep my car from rubbing with lots of weight? I pack a lot of video gear often and it weighs my car down by 200-300 lbs at times, all in the back seat and trunk. Please help!

I want this suspension:

^^^^
I mean 1.75 in front and 1.5 in back...or would using Tien Basics be a better bet? I would like the ability to raise/lower my car at will...

I just currently purchased some 18' MSR rims.. they came with 215/40/18 tires on them but I'm not sure if they are right for my 2000 tl and trying to find that size is hell. The rim dimensions are 18x8 +42 offset I believe.. What size tires should I purchase?? without it rubbing..

You know what pisses me off...how an 18x8 +22 wont fit with 225/40 w/ 3.5 degrees of negative camber.I cut everylast mm of the bumper and it still wont fit...looks like I gotta go with the 215/40 :/

fsttyms1

Should have got something with a higher offset.

racing hart c2's...18x7.5 et42 will this fit?

TL Type S fan

I'm going to see a new TenZo Type M wheel. I asked the sales guy for the offset for my 03 TL and he said it called for +37 I told him it would stick out quite a bit.
Shouldn't the 2nd gen be +45 or higher?

TL Type S fan

That is the size I currently have on my 03 TL. They fit very well. Those Racing Harts are very nice, good luck with them.

17x9 +27 on 215/45/17.

Already have tabs cut and fenders rolled. I'm dropped on "2.2 all around natural camber. How much more camber?

Are you, or do you plan on lowering the car?

Has anyone seen the RonJon RevGT-M? http://www.ronjonwheels.com/ronjonim...e/rev_gt-m.jpg

I wrote to see if they have a higher offset then +32 in the red and they wrote back saying they would fit a 2G TLS just fine????

This can't be right, any input anyone? They should be sticking out by 2+ inches I would imagine.

I have Tech H Tiens with yellow Konis. I went ahead and bought the Tenzos but with +45 offset in charcol.
My Kyowa racing wheels and tires are for sale now.

guys, I need some help. I mentioned this earlier on this page but thought I'd bump it cuz no one has replied.

I have to carry between 100-300 lbs in the back seat and trunk of my 02 TLS. I want to lower it 1.5 inches in back, but need to know how many headaches I'll run into when I have to carry that weight (ie rubbing). I only carry the weight about once a month for a full day. Thanks in advance! New to the forum.

kp4lyfx

need some help. will these fit or will i have to roll fenders due to low offset? thanks!

Wont have any issues if you are on stock wheels or the correct offset rims. I carry more than that and im a little lower with 235/40/18, soon to be 255/35. So far the only thing i have done is trim the tabs.

klectic

Thinking of putting my 19s back on. I'm lowered on F2 with minor tuck. Currently have

225/40/18 7.5 width +42

with no fender mod or rubbing (..well, in the rear at least no rubbing lol)

I want to put

225/35/19 7.5 width +47 (or +48.. I forgot..)

Should I be fine? I seem to rub my fronts when I'm doing tight turns, but that seems to be the norm with dumped cars so I'm not too worried about that haha

Thanks

bluballz

Thanks bro

You will be fine with that.

kp4lyfx

will i have to trim my tabs for this size to not rub on my 03 tl-s?
or fender rolling required?

19x8.5
offset = +40

i plan on getting h&r springs and koni shocks in the future, so the car will be lower later on!
let me know, thanks!
