What about the 18's off an RDX? Anyone know what the width and offset is. I think it would be a good look (somewhat similar) to stock.

I am running basically the same setup, cut your tabs on the rear bumper and you should be good to go.

the rears might be a problem with that wide of wheel and tire...i'd say go with 225/35 in the rear as well and FOR SURE a fender roll and trim tabs...

Would I have any problems running these rims on my '04 automatic TL w/ Aspec body kit? I'm at the stock hieght now but would like to drop it 1"-1.5".

fronts - 19x8 w/46mm offset & 235/35/19 tires
rear - 19x8.5 w/40mm offset & 245/35/19 tires

Could I run a 265/30/19 on the back without any issues?

They should fit fine, my current set up is 19 x 8 +51 all the way around and there is still some room, I do however have my fenders rolled and my tabs cut. So you'll probably have to do one or the other or possibly both... I'm thinking you could probably just get away with cutting your tabs since your offsets are good.

Depends on what you want ... if you want to do some "work" (ie cut tabs, roll fenders) then it will work but you'll have to be careful. Skinny tires might not be enough -- you might have to run some negative camber to make it all fit.

I'm no expert on tire sizes for people pushing the limits on wide rims for a TL. You'll have to do a little reading in this thread. Shouldn't take you no more than 15 minutes to get an idea.

I have an O3 Type S with the OEM kit
I want to fit TL A Specs off an 04, I am told they are 18x8.5, +45 offset.

No drop yet, but I want to get Eibach Pro Kits, 2.1 front, 1.6 rear, I think I will have to cut tabs, do I need a roll? If so, only slightly right? I never have anything in my trunk and rarely more than 1 passenger.

double dee - you should be find with that set up, personally i would go for the 40 series as 45 would be too thick. most people run 225/40/18

my question is- will a 215 on a 19 x 8.5 be alright? again, from what i see on most people's set up, they are running either a 225 or 235 on their 19s.

thanks

I'm gonna say ... no way unless you are going to:

a) roll fenders
b) cut tabs
c) run stretched tires
d) crazy camber

I'm sure it will 'fit' but it will most likely not look very appealing unless you are lowered and have a good suspension to accommodate the skinny tires you will have to run to make it work.

You will need a 225/35/19 tire, no way a 235 will clear with that offset, a little camber, rolled rear fenders, and cut rear tabs.

Is that stock or dropped i know i would need it dropped but stock is it going to stick out at all or at most be flush with the fenders. Car has a camber kit already so i can add neg camber if that is needed but i would like to keep it at 0 camber till it is dropped unless it sticks out.

specs: 18x7.5 45mm offset ( found on another site)
http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/pts/1820178778.html would these be considered low profile? he doesent mention tire size

or:
not named mesh wheels that need tires. what size tires would fit well?

Looks like an RSX in the pics ... I would double-check the tire size since the OEM 16" that come with an RSX is 205/55-16. A similar circumference for 18" would be around 215/40/18 ... hopefully 225/40/18 is on the car so it would fit better.

Would have to do some playing around / modification (trim fenders / cut tabs) for you to have a shot at trying to get these rims to fit. Also ... no mention of tire size. If it fits a Mustang and Japanese cars, you'll probably need some hubcentric rings for it to fit properly (ie bolt pattern isn't exactly the same).

Good luck on your search.

what do you guys think about fitting
19x8.5 +42 or +43
tires: 235/35/19
-the guy im buying them from isn't sure which one it is from those two tho, but all four wheels are same offset.
-i am dropped for f2 coils and thinking about going lower after i get wheels, only if it is possible.

but would this set up fit wit only rolling fenders? or would i have to cut/pull them also?

these are some pic of my drop:






i dont want to run a big negative camber, dont really wanna be changing my tires alot.

I'm hoping someone can help me out.
I'm currently riding on TIEN SS
I'm looking at a set of rim
SPECS: 18 x 8 offset +42mm and hubs of 73.1mm

Can I make this work? And if yes, what size of tire will make this works. Some people are telling me that the front will fit but there will be some rubbing in the rear.

Thanks

The thinner the better ... 225/40/18

You have to trim tabs and roll fenders to ensure you don't rub. A little negative camber might be needed if you slam yourself to the lowest setting.

Good luck with your set-up.

Hey I have some questions

So I just got some lowering springs (Eibach: 2.1/front 1.6/rear)

and I'm going to install them this weekend. I have stock rims right now but and looking to buy these:
Will they sit flush? I know the offset and width look right, but they won't rub if the car is low will they? I don't have front tabs under the fenders (ran over some serving trays a few years ago) but I do in the back. Not opposed to cutting them out, I just want to make sure it fits without any issues and I don't have to camber them

^Sit flush with what? the fender? lol no...

The only thing flush will be how to 225 sits on the 8"

You'll get away without having to roll your fenders/cutting tabs..if you looked back at page 1, you would have known this already

I read it haha I was just confused. I didn't want to post until I read everything and then ask the question.

but thanks for the help :-)

I'm good at engine mods and the like (used to be a civic head) but when it comes to rims and wheels I'm a noob and not ashamed to admit that :-D

I am trying to buy some tires in the Black market.


I have an 03 dropped about 2.25 in front, 1.7 in back.
After alignment, rear camber is about -1.3 degrees

The rims I want are 18x8, running 245/40/18 tires, I would ultimately get 225 tires when these ones wear out, but I was wondering if I could get these to fit with only a roll, or will I need a slight pull as well?
