That makes sense! I couldn't tell because the new rims have the center cap cover thing... couldn't see the actual holes in the pics.

Is 9.5 in the rear and 8.5 in the front the widest i can go without fender mods? What's the lowest offset for the front and rears if i go with the 9.5 and 8.5?... Also with no fender mods.

anyone know about my last post?

ok i am sure you have answered this on here.. if i want to do a 19x8.5 front and a 19x9.5 rear with a 1" drop front and a 1"rear drop what offsets should i look for on my wifes 07 type-s auto and i dont want spacers and i would like to avoid any rubbing so some help would be great. thanks guys

okay... found another set of wheels that i like. i saw them on fellow acurazine member lembowski's 05 ssm.

5zigen ProRacer ZR+520

looking to get 19s. available widths are 8in, 9in, and 10in. i'm going for the 9in width for the fronts and rears... i wanna get away from the stock width of 8in and i think 10in is just way too wide (or is it? wouldn't mind having 10s in the rear). the possible offsets for the 19x9 is +37, +42 , and +50 (+20 and +37 for the 10in). lembowski's setup was 19x9 front and rear and +37 all around. he's dropped lower than me and from what i read in his thread... i'm gonna assume he has no rubbing issues, but i don't know if he had to do any kind of fender mods. this is his car https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/beautiful-day-new-rims-new-photos-704739/

What tire size would be good? the size that he was running was 245/35-19, but the tires were slightly stretched. maybe something like 255/30? i'm thinkin that might be too wide for the fronts. will there be any issues with turning and rubbing? would i have to roll fenders to make them fit? i'm dropped 1.5in. my car is automatic, so there's no issue with bbk.

thanks.

17x8 +45
64.1mm centerbore

if you don't have a manual nor a type s then they fit


+35 front
+40 rear

rubbing is caused by running too wide of a tire and too low of an offset

for the front 245/35-19
for the rear 255/30-19

245/35-19 is not stretched, that's what I'd run in the +37 offset

it is the equivalent of running 235 on a 8.5 really

Will this set-up have ANY rubbing issues?

sounds good. so there won't be a problem with the rears then. how about the fronts? will they rub with the 19x9 +37 with 245/35? i'm concerned about when making turns....

will i have clearance for the bbk? hows the fitment? need spacers/fender roll or neither? will tires mess with the speedo?

I was just looking around to find 8inch width wheels but i've found some....anyways if you guys tryin to see whats the difference on the offset click --> http://www.kgm.tiwing.com/calcs/offsetcalc.htm hope this helps

this will fit w/out issue


the fronts will not rub if you are dropped above 2"... less than 2" you will have to camber some

they clear the brembos, no fender rubbing no rolling and speedo will be fine

no sorry I do not... you can make a post on the photo section someone will post pics

that may not clear the non-manual non-s calipers

minimum is 17x8 +45

my point exactly

davidle84

20x10 +32 offset for the rears.
235/30 for now, but will do 255/30 later

Yay or nay. High Disk too btw.

Great thread and very helpful!

My scenario is:
04 base TL 5at
RDX accessory wheels (19x8, 5x114.3, 45 offset)
stock suspension (for now, plan on mild drop 1.5"ish all the way around)

What would be the BEST size tire to run? Im guessing 235/35/19, but Id like sum reassurance. And what would be the biggest Tire I could run? I live in NW Indiana, close to Chicago, so POTHOLES are a MOFO.

I BELIEVE my fenders (front and rear) are already rolled, they appear to be, but I bought the car used, and never payed attention to an unrolled TL. But even if they arent, I would have no problem or issues rolling them to make bigger tires fit properly. Thanks in advance...

UAeight08

Huh? I don't get it... it's not gonna rub if the car is dropped more than 2 inches? i would think that i'd have to camber if i was dropped more than 2 inches... not less than 2. care to explain, please?

my car is lowered 1.5" front and rear.

that will require custom bodywork...

245/35-19 is what I would run

rdx aspec wheels are a great buy I've seen them sell for pretty cheap

they will clear the brakes... now you do know you will need to stretch tire and roll pull them fenders especially the rears... it's def gonna need some body work

I'd say 225 in the front stretch 235 in the rear also stretch

well i was going to shave the rears and roll the fronts.... you still think i will need to pull the fenders if i shave them?

they will fit

yeah you will still need to pull them slightly... i'd pull alot and get both quarters body filled and repainted just for a clean look

the wheels fit
for the rear they will require fender rolling and negative camber with a slight pull... I'd say you could get 245/35-19 tires instead so no pulling necesarry

245/30/20?

Which wont rub and which is most likely no going to bust as easily ?(if thats an issue)

horsepowercrzy18

definatelyy do 245/30/20

iTrader: (1)

if you go 19" you will have to run 225/35-19 which will be kind've narrow and won't protect the rim much... 18" won't look too small with the drop... try and stay with wheels w/out lips in 18" so they won't look small... I am not all too familiar wat the 2nd gen tl/cl can get away with width and offset wise.... so you may want to double check with the corresponding forum


those wheels will not clear the type s brakes
spacer required for clearance 20mm-25mm

I'd worried more about that toe... what purpose was it that he left sooo much positive toe... now question... what on earth do you have in the passenger side rear trunk...? a sub?
245/30-20 is the way to go
245/35-20 will rub on big dips even at stock heigh it is far too tall

I don't have anything in the trunk on that side. No subs at all.
Would you suggest I go back and ask them to recalibrate the toe, if so to what level? Could anything be done about that negative camber?

Do I really need the fender pull for the rear or will the previous fender roll work?

Hello All,

Sorry to post another thread on wheel fitment. I tried to do some searching before posting but didn't remember coming accross anything on this exact setup and if it can be done with little to no modification (fender rolling, etc.).

Rim info:
XXR 522 gold concave staggered rims
Diameter: 19"
Width: Front 8.5" Rear 10"
Bolt Patterns: 5x114.3, 5x120
Offset: Front +15 Rear +20 OR Front +38 Rear + 42

Anybody have this exact setup with pictures or wheels that have these same specs? I imagine the +38/+42 to fit better than the +15/+20. Will they clear the calipers and not rub with fenders? I am planning a 1-1.5" drop in the near future as well.

Thanks in advance!

ok so can i run a 255/30/20? or will those rub too?

once again i have 20x8.5 rims w/a +38 offset on an 07 base TL

I'll be running this on an 04 and it is a manual. I just want to know if this will work, and if so, what offsets to run. Any input on tire sizes would be helpful too.
