I am looking at these wheels for my 2010 TSX. What is the best offset they come in 50 and 42

Terdbath

Both will fit. 42 will bring the surface of the rim out farther. Your stock wheels are 55 so this will bring it out 13mm or almost an inch.

Nice wheels by the way.

Terdbath

Surprised no one corrected me yet. 13mm is closer to half an inch.

we really need to know the size of the wheel too to answer this Q properly..but yea its probably gonnna fit whichever one you choose

Marley1187

They are 19x8. What size tire would work the best also?

ttk5

I say go for 19x8 + 42 with 245/35/19.
I had 19x8 +38 on my car with 245/35/19 and I had no complaints and my speedometer was accurate.

ed_423

yeah go with +42. i thought about these wheels too, but decided i am not too crazy about the looks. cant wait to see it on your ride tho! maybe it'll change my mind

Marley1187

I am not planning on lowering it right away. Will 245 40 19 fit ok?

i thought about getting them in 19's. but decided i wasnt too crazy over it. you shuold do it tho, i think the gunmetal color would look nice

edit: opps, i thought you were talking about the 5zigen. those ekm3s are ok, a bit too busy for me.

ttk5

EKM3's are a nicely made light weight wheel if I recall properly. I know they are a newer version of the RPM2's which my friend on his accord. I think they'll look pretty good.

what size tire should i go with?

Puppetmaster

Use this tool:

http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp

Put in the OEM specs as wheel 1, and your new combo as wheel 2 and it'll help you figure out the fit of the new rims relative to your stock rims, with detailed measurements.

Puppetmaster

Personally, I'd go with 245/40/18. It is closest to stock, ie. the speedometer readings will be least off, and the ride quality is much better than a 235 tire.

TSXboy422

cool thanks a lot puppetmaster

TSXboy422
