What do you guys think about this on my palladium tsx? If there's any Photoshop expert that can put this on the car, I will greatly appreciate your effort. Thanks also to those who will reply.

I love those wheels. You'll have (well not have but should) get some spacers because the offset sucks.

They had two sets on this auction and I got one of them, and shortly after the other sold. I cant wait for them to come in. I am getting the coil overs and tires now. I have a Polished Metal Metallic 09 TSX so I will post pics when I have them installed. Didnt see any PMM with these, but here is a link to an Accord which personally helped me in my decision. I love the way these wheels look with the PMM color.

I bought the other set! I have an 09 Grigio metallic. What size tires are you going with? Do you think the 245/40r19 will fit on a stock suspension?

well, i guess i wont be getting the hfp since you guys bought them all, :-) dont forget to post pics.

badcop621

There are a couple of other sets for sale on there

I am trying to decide on the tire size now. A guy here at my work thinks the 245/40/19 will be a beefy tire so might try and go with a slightly lower profile tire since I am going to lower the car but the 245/40/19 is my other option. I am definitely not a tire expert so I am up for suggestions from anyone if they have a recommendation

I will definitely post pics when I get them installed.

The dealership I got these from was awesome to deal with. The price was amazing at $1189 shipped. I'm in Cali so tax alone saved me some money plus the free shipping. He even included in the TPM Sensors for my car.

The Acura dealership is in Vegas. Call (702)982-4100 and ask for Oscar in parts. See if they can order you a set for the same price. He said they can get any Acura or Honda part. Good Luck!

Most of us with 19"s are running 245/35/19.

Thanks DerwoodEE, that's the size we were thinking as well.
Your ride's sick by the way! Cleanest on the 2nd Gen forums for sure.

Just an FYI. They listed another set of the rims from the same seller:

Does anyone run a 245/40R19 with a +55 offset? I`m worried they might rub the steering nuckel.

I'm also looking at the 245/40/19 tires. Anybody can post a pic of how this tires will look on a stock suspension?

badcop621

Hey, I didnt get sensors with my order?

scooterb84

iTrader: (1)

I didn't buy using ebay. I called the dealer directly because I wanted to see what they were all about, and if they seemed reputable. I talked to Oscar and he was way cool and hooked me up with the TPM sensors and even got me a quote for tires, but the tires were a little pricey. Either way you cant beat the price! I heard you can just swap your stock TPM sensors over anyways, so you should be OK. I also did some research on changing the center bap badges which looks like it might be possible, but I wanted to get them first and get measurements. Here are the links just in case your interested:

In the link above that I posted with the Honda Accord, he is running that tire setup.

get spacers for those and like it will be fine. like 10mm?

iTrader: (1)

how much did he quote you on the tires?

scooterb84

iTrader: (1)

I believe he quoted me around $2100 shipped, mounted, balanced and filled with Nitrogen but they were for generic no name tires... I could see if they were a good brand name, but that seemed a little high for no name tires. Dealers will tend to charge more for tires, at least in my experience. I have a connection with Toyo where I work, so hoping to get a good deal on some Toyo tires.

OK, I ordered my tires today, ended up going with 245/35/19.. cant wait. I am off this Friday, so hoping to get springs, wheels and tires installed by the end of the weekend. I will definitely post pics.. I also got one of my wheels today, all I have to say is WOW... absolutely AMAZING looking wheels.

badcop621

Cool. I`m still up the air as to what sized to go with. I want to go 245/40r19 but worried the tire may rub the some suspension components, expecially with the 55 offset. What do ya think? Keep me posted.

badcop621

Are you prettty sure they fit with no problems? If so, i`ll order the same size.

scooterb84

iTrader: (1)

Yeah, DerwoodEE and almost every other member running 19's is running that size. Again, it really depends on your driving situation and preference. Me personally, I want a lower profile look... but go with what you feel more comfortable with. I just cant wait to get these bad boys installed...

badcop621

Got 1 wheel in today. Looks awesome. I even got the wheel sensors too! I ordered the 245/35r19 hankook v12 evo tires today. Cant wait. Do these sensors come already programmed?

scooterb84

iTrader: (1)

I believe the TPM's are plug and play, just have them installed when they mount the tires, and you should be good to go. I think DerwoodEE said he just installed his and the tsx picked them up right away.

I got one wheel by itself too, and then the rest the next day. They did a real good job packing the wheels. These wheels are amazing, I keep opening the box and looking at them. I love the finish, they are very high quality, and super light! Still looking for an installer for my springs, so once those are on, the wheels are next. Hoping to have everything done sometime next week.

DerwoodEE

Mine were OEM though, came off another '09 TSX. I can't say for sure if the car will recognize ones that haven't been previously programmed.

scooterb84

iTrader: (1)

Gotcha. I will make sure I update on how my TPM's work then. They are supposedly OEM from the Acura dealer so I am guessing they should work without any additional programming. I will see if I can get a part number from them that way if they work, it might help anyone needing to get a second pair.

HeavyDuty

They may be OE from the dealer, but I know for sure (as an example) the sensors from an 08 TL-S *do not* automatically work on the 09 TSX. I'd double check the part number.
