2006 acura tl is 20mm offset bad/help me!!!!

I am intrested in buying these wheels. The guy claims the offset is 20mm, I am not sure if they will stick out but the bolt pattern fits, I have just never heard of an offset like that. Please help me asap. The ad for the wheels is below.

5x114.3 bolt pattern
20mm offset

Stillhere153 is like the wheel king around here, so if he says you'll rub by going over a pencil, then yea, if you roll over a pencil you're going to rub lol.

^^^What he said...

+20 offset with 20" rims is trouble on our cars. Period. IMO keep looking.

they look like they poke on the altima. I personally do not like how they look and would pass and find another set. I think you're gonna rub like a mofo.

If you have to have these wheels, I say go test fit if the seller is koo and see how they fit.

+1.. The wheel widths weren't even posted.

You need an 8" or 8.5" to be safe. Esp with 20s.

If you want to shop for new wheels a good site for us Canadians is www.1010tires.com

I bought my wheels from them this year, good pricing, selection, and shipping. Good luck with your wheel search

Yes, Canada does really bite when looking for rims. I was in the same situation also!
Anyways, i dout the 20 offset will work as i am running 20's with 7.5 width and an offset of 38+ and i rub under load and heavy bumps.
So more then likely you'll rub worse them i am.
My 2cents!

Yeeea...but where are u rubbing?? More on the inner side of the wheels no?? Because the +20 offset will bring the wheel outwards more toward the fenders...

I test fitted stock Infiniti 8" rims +30mm offset on the TL.. Unless the wheel was pointed perfectly straight, it rubbed....

I also test fitted Work rims, 8.5" +25mm and 9.5" +20mm.... They stuck out past the fenders.

Rip off, bad sizes, ugly rims.
