19" satin black w/ machined rimline or 19" raven black machined on a '12 CBP TSX.

Ok guys,

So, since ron is putting up a sale on his site. I got my choices down to these two wheels. I'm still very unsure of how the satin black would look on my black tsx and thinking that it'll take away a little of its luxury look. However, they come with the offset i want which is 48. The raven black on the other hand only have 2 48 offset left and the other 2 are 32 offset. I kinda like the raven black since it fits my car lookwise thus keeping the luxury/sporty look. Is there any cons if I get 2 different offsets front and rear? thanks.

are you lowered?
I would go with the 32 offset
I you gonna drop your car the wheel would get sucked in and that is not gonna look right with 32 the wheel will look more flush

its so flush as it is now with the 32 offset, if you lower with just springs it will rub (especially in the front because my 48 offset up front is exactly flush with the fender), but if you go coilovers you should be good, might need to roll a little but not sure. here are some pics of how the wheels sit on stock suspension (32 in back, 48 in front) (same size as the satin black ones, had these first)

when i first got the reflective silver, the order got messed up and i got all four wheels 32 offset, had to drive on them for a couple days till the 48's came in and the front rubbed alot over bumps and big dips in the road. i havent had any problems with the staggered 48-32 offset on stock springs and ive been running with them for almost two years. if you decide to lower (just springs) you may run into a problem with the 32 in back but if you go with coilovers you should be fine
