Blue TSX/ 19" Enkei Ammodo...

I didnt realize how hard it is to find wheels for Bleu.
Mostly because of the front fitment. IMO, bright silver is best, definitely not black or chrome. Really trying to keep a clean look and fitment. Wheels must be slightly tucked in. It's easy to "rice" out these cars, exactly what i dont want to do.


For now, ive decided on Enkei 19x8 Ammodo. Its one of the few that come in +48 offset. after seeing all the tire fitments out there, 225/40/19 tires for a 19x8 is best. This tire will be as close to factory diameter 59.9 to 26.1 . Eibach springs drop. What ya'll think of this wheel?





BTW, anyone interested in NEW 19x8 +48 . set of wheels for only $399!? Came across these Rota Quake . not my style tho.


Picture these wheels, but its on a blue TSX??? does it work?

Killer, take some of the pics of my VBP and chop these wheels on, also with a drop please. it'll give him a better idea. i personally don't like it too much, but i just dont like that wheel style. check out bigman09's progress thread, he had the RJ's before that were a little similar to this

Too many shops ~_~

, but to the OP, these are beautiful wheels, and fell under close observation when a crew member mentioned how nice they looked to me. They would easily fall on my short list, and on a VBP its a no brainer

Those rims look Cool on that beamer but I dont think they would go with an ACURA.
they look to basic. plus any rims look nice on a BMW you ever notice. But you need some real taste to match the style of a TSX or TL and I have allways liked Enkei rims thou?
