Wheels?

i got a 06 tl. Looking into TIS10 20 x 8.5 wheels. dealers up here sya i have to run 235/30/20. But u guys are running 245/35/20 and 245/30/20. is it much of a diff. Is one size safer than another. They told me with th3 235/30/20 that it was easy to damage the rims. Also did u guys add extra tpms to the new wheels. If so if u summer tires and keep the stock wheels for winter do i have to take the car to acura everytime i change the tires or do the sensors start working once i mount the wheels on.

hey TL-z,

go to http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp and look at the tire calculator... that would tell you everything you need to know...

I was personally running 245/35/20 all around... and driving in NYC everyday... with no problems... other have been running 245/30/20 with similar success...

I rolled my fenders, in the rear, prior to installing my wheels & tires because I was planning on running a 35mm offset wheel with a 245/35 tire... I did it to be carefull...

Looks sweet TL310..what size tires u running..Im hesitant about putting 235/30/20 on my tl cause of all the potholes n stuff on the roads. Shops told me if i wanna run 20's then i need the 30 so they wont rub. By the way..did u add new tire pressure monitors to the wheels? Did u roll the fenders at all?

Thanks man I'm running 245/35 in the front and 275/35 in the back. I rolled the back & the front and trimmmed the side. but its still manages to rub when I hit a hard bump but other then then that its dont rub. Next time around I would proably go with 235/30 & 255/30 in the back and rubbing issues should be gone.
I just use the stock tire pressure monitors.

I personally like machined aluminum Chrome is for people with gold teeth. That Blue bimmer is sick What machined aluminum rim in about an 18" would look good on an 07 Silver TL-S ? Brand/Model ?

Do you have only the A-Spec side under spoilers? I am considering doing something with my 07 TL-S but I am not sure what I should do? Acura, or what brand aero package, etc? I am not loaded$$$ So whats up?

Is your TL manual or auto? You have to have more offset for the brembro's on the manual trans right?

Exclamation

I'm trying to get away with at least 245/30-20 tires in the rear this summer. I have 225's now I believe (if that's 10 mm less than the stock size, bc I know i'm def. 10 mm smaller than the stock TL tires). I also have the Eibach Prokit Springs which are about a 1" drop.

Whats the biggest size tires you think I could fit w/o rubbing and usually having a semi-heavy drunk daily? I'm thinking probably 255 at the most (even then I might have to trim the wheel wells). I'm also thinking about the adjustable coilovers from TEIN also ... hmmm ...

I found a TL in here with 275's in the back ... that's insane! I'd probably want like 275/20-20 tho so the profile isn't has large ...

this is how you roll your fenders... (you have to pre-heat the area with a heat gun)



The purpose is to create more space, so your bigger & wider tires & wheels could travel... there is an existing lip on the rear fender that gets rolled upwards to make more room...

Hope this helps...

What kind of drop and springs you're using homeboy? I'm really on the fence on 20's because I don't want my stuff looking like some hotwheel car. I want to fill out the wheel wells but I don't want my car looking like its some bigfoot. I think you're setup looks very clean.
