Jaz Trinity on an 03 Acura?
I am thinking about purchasing a set of the Jaz Trinity wheels in the 19 x 8.5 size with a 45 offset. I have looked through many of the threads and plan on cutting tabs and possibly rolling my fenders if needed. Does anybody know if these wheels will still give me trouble? What tire size should I go with on this setup? I am lowered on H&R sports. Thanks for our help.

225s or 235s will fit. it'll only rub if you are dropped or planning on dropping it at which pt you need to cut tabs and roll/cut fenders. and they will look siiiccck!!!! (boku's https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...95&postcount=1)

naw man, 19x8 on mine with 45 offset rubbed on my urethane, so I trimmed my fender tabs back and it took care of it.. I think you would rub on the metal fender unless you rolled them

when i first got my 19x8 (45 offset), I parked at an angle at the bottom of my driveway to contort my suspension and measured my clearance..i had about an 1/8 inch of clearance with my tire and the metal fender edge. I'm dropped on HR SPorts by the way. I think rolling the fenders may buy you an extra 1/2" or so, maybe more..dunno, but just wanted to share with you just how close my 235 tires get to my fender with that combo. 225 will probably help you clear depending on your drop.

Well, it turns out the wheels were Axis Milanos instead. I bought two of them for $150 which is a great deal since these are in mint condition. I know they are discontinued so now I am looking for two more. Any recommendations? I was thinking I can get two of the Jaz Trinity but the Trinity has more rivets. What do you guys think?

Maybe you can rock the flip flop look, Milanos on one side and two different wheels, same sizes, on the other side. If you're into that sort of thing. Anyways good luck.

Ok guys. So I decided to go a different route and go with my first love, the MRR HR2. I ordered these today because I figured even if I do get the fourth Milano if I wreck one it will be a pain in the ass to find another replacement. I'm gonna be running these on the Falcon FK452 (225/35/19). I heard this tire was pretty good. Anybody on here running these wheels?

OK guys so I ordered the HR2 from element wheels and thought I was all good. I get a call within 30 minutes and they tell me they only have two with the 45 offset! To top that off MRR will not have these available for another 2 months. Why me? I finally said fuk it and went with the Axis Hiro. Just got them today I will post pics once I get them installed.

let me know what you think. I went with 19 x 8.5 with 225/35/19 tires. i did not have the roll the fenders since I am only on H&R sports. Still a lot of wheel gap so either I will drop it more or just get a 40 series tire next time, especially in the rear.
