D-100: The Official "Does This Wheel and/or Tire Fit My Car" Thread
#601
Three Wheelin'
I'm raising a perch on the Koni's that should level things out... if I run into an issue with the fender I imagine it can be rolled out rather easily. I guess the real test is putting them on the car... should find out next week

Thanks,
help me understand, the 18x8's come in an offset of 35 while the 18x8.5's come in on offset of 30's, this is according to the Enkei site so without having to roll the fenders, which size would you recommend? also if you don't mind what size tire would fit best.
thank you so much for your help, it's greatly appreciated

When you say rub, are you speaking fender clearance, or clearance between when and suspension components.

If you raise your ride, you will have less chances of it occuring so you're good

Hello Fellaz,
I am new on this forum, well... because I bought my 2004 Acura TL only a week ago. It is bone-stock, 5AT,Navi. I was looking into swapping my stock 5 spokes with these below,
These are Bentchi B16s. According to their website the size is 18x7.5(I am only looking into putting 18s on my car, nothing bigger). I don't know what the offset is. Given that I won't be lowering my car and looking for "flush" look, what size of tires am I looking for? Also, I heard that with 7.5 width tires you can only go 235, otherwise tires will be wearing out quicker and it ain't safe. Is that true?Oh, and I know they will fit my car because the bolt pattern is 5x114.3. Any help is appreciated.

you should search this site before making a wheel decision (unless you're dead-set on those). you can get a good idea of what looks good on a TL here. IMO the TL is a very difficult car to match wheels to (cosmetic-wise).
btw...just because the bolt pattern is correct does not mean the wheel will fit your car...just ask all these guys on this site with Brembo's. if possible always test fit the wheel beforehand. good luck!

Questions on Wheels
Wheel Make/Model:Axis Pentas
Wheel Size (**X**):19x8.5 and 19x9.5
Wheel Offset (+**):What offsets should I be looking at?
If lowered (amount):A small drop in the future.
My girl and I are flying up to New York this weekend to pick up her 07 Type S (automatic) and driving it back to Houston. We have been checking out wheels this past week and I'm really digging the Axis Pentas. We would like the staggered look and would like to run a 245/35/19 and a 275/30/19. I've read about the the bigger brakes up front possibly causing clearance issues. What should I be looking at in regards to offset to run these wheels on this car? If I have to roll the fenders that won't be an issue. If a minimal spacer is needed to make this setup work we are ok with that as well. We may or may not lower the car. If we did it would be minimal just to close up some of the fender gap but we would not be slamming the car.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

if you plan to lower then you will have to modify your front fender slightly

either works with the tire specs... and if your car is not equiped with brembos it will be fine, if your car is equiped with brembos only the 18x8.5 +35 will fit
