2008 TL base with 16" steelies/winters

hey guys, any issues with slapping on ugly 16" steelies for the upcoming winter? Found a great deal but want to confirm if a set of 5x114.3 steelies that were on a civic will be OK on our TL. Any issues with brake clearance?

thanks!!!

No, the civic has 4-lug wheels. our TL's have 5-lugs. look for an accord wheel instead.

Yeah but probably the wrong offset. Just find a set of old banged up TL wheels (could even be from the 2G cars as well) and use those. ATleast you dont have to worry about clearing huge brembo brakes that the Type S has. That opens you up to a lot more possibilities.
