Question Help - Fitment Question

One of my friends thinks I'll have fitment issues on the new wheels I picked up.

Specs on the rear: 19x10 +43

Can anyone confirm if I'll have issues?

Where do you think I'd have clearance issues?

do you know the specs of your current wheels? u can plug it into the wheel offset calculator i use and see how much it will change both inside and outside

It says that it'll be 36mm less [Inner Clearance] and 40mm extended [Outer Position].
Thanks in advance if you can help.

Well I thought I'd try and get some opinions from the 2nd Gen members but I guess no one knows...

Since the TL and the 6th gen accord have the same platform, that will definitely hit the strut with the amount of camber you'll need to run those wheels. You'd need about an offset of at least +25 IIRC.

When I had 17x9 +35 dropped around 3.5 inches (-3.3 camber in the rear) in the accord, the rim would slightly rub on the strut when I would go up steep inclines.

I plan to go with 18x9.5 +30 for the next set up on the TL.

It seems to be mixed input on this which is really throwing me off base...

I run 9.5 +47 in the front with -1.5 camber and 9.5 +50 in the rear with -1 camber.

The front never rubs the strut, but the rear does rub the strut if I have 2 or 3people in the back and I am going up an incline. With 1 person in back, it does not rub.

I don't usually carry people so that's totally cool with me. I've even contemplated removing the back seat because I just feel like I should hack the car up and experiment.
