List +48 offset or higher wheels please
Ok, getting ready to buy some 18 or 19 inch wheels soon. I am struggling to do searches online to find wheel manufacturers that offer +48 to +55 offset wheels.
Can you list the wheel companies, or wheel names that you know of that fit this category. I don't think there is a thread like this already.
I know a couple off hand, perhaps you know more that you can add to the list.

Thanks!
This is such a great concept! I wish more companies did this for Acura cars. I like the Servo style, but they don't have it in 19"...dang it.

Yeah, I hear that you should look for a bare minimum of +48 offset. I know some folks have +38, +42, and +45. Some say they have issues, some don't. Who knows.
It all comes down to:
wheel width in inches
wheel offset (the real biggie)
tire size
tire brand (some tires even having the same size, but different manufacturers, can rub even on the same size width rim) I have personally experienced this on my other car.
Bottom line, lots of factors to consider, but the best combo I have seen is the 19x7.5" or 8" rim with 235/35/19 tires and at least a +50 offset. Not sure about 18 inch wheel combos, they have a slight bit more flexibility.
The new RonJon wheels sponsored on this forum are perfect and will most likely be the way I will go. I'm waiting to see the newer styles coming out soon. They are made specifially for Honda's and Acura's, totally taking the guesswork and worries about buying wheels for our cars.
