HELP!!! With wheel selection
Ok guys im fairly new on here and would just like to introduce myself...
I have a virgin diamond white pearl 2007 tl type s.. i just got my coilovers and just ordered a full aspec type s kit and now im looking for wheels that will clear bbk.. im looking at 3 different sets so far and having a hard time picking which ones and offset..
1= Varrstoen 3.3.1 19x9.5 + 22offset
2=Roderick rw4 front 19x8.5 rear 19x9.5 +30 custom offset (used)
3=EXE konvex front 19x8.5 rear 19x9.5 not sure on offset??? Or can i run 9.5 all 4
Also open for other suggestions... i really want 19's but also open to 18's
If spacers needed im ok with it and also i plan on rolling my fenders..
What does it mean PULLING FENDERS????

I really like the varrstoen also but its been pain in the A$$ trying to get them.... i just talked to varrstoen earlier this week about ordering cause i couldnt find a set anywhere online in the correct +22 offset to clear bbk which i was told would clear bbk and in matte black finish... then found out they weren't makin the 19in 3.3.2 in matte black anymore and they are only gonna carry hyper black...Then they said i have to wait till march before they will be on hand in the hyper black finish which looks silver or slight polished to me ... i wanna wait but at the same time is it worth the wait???
And what does it mean to pull ur fenders???
I plan on running 235/35/19 or 225/25/19

This is a pretty tough decision. I've been searching around for pics of all these rims on the TL and there really aren't many of the Varrstoen ES3 or the Roderrick RW4. The one pic I found of the ES3 on a TL (which has A-Spec kit and is lowered), I can't really say that I loved them on this car.
The one pic I seen of the Roderick RW4 on a TL (which was lowered but no A-Spec kit) looked decent but with the staggered setup I don't feel as though the lip on the front rim is big enough and makes the car look awkward. I think having the same size width rim with a nice deep lip would make this setup look a lot better.
The EXE Konvex pics that I have seen look really nice (these were pics of cars with and without A-Spec, but all were lowered). The staggered setup as well as having the same width rim all around looks very nice.
Out of the 3 rims you have picked I would go with these. However, more people have run these rims than the other two, not saying these are cookie cutter rims at all, because not THAT many people have run them, but if you're trying to be different then pick one of the other two.
To pull any of these off you will need to be lowered and be towards the aggressive fitment side. Good Luck deciding!

Well rims are subjective (just like any mod), what we think looks bad, you may like, or vice versa. We are here to more or less offer you an opinion on rims that you have already picked out. It is afterall your car to mod and if you like something do it, don't let us tell you otherwise.
There are a ton of rims out there to choose from depending on your budget, which I'm guessing is pretty high based on the 3 choices you provided. I myself love the way the Varrstoen ES1's look on the TL and I'm planning on getting a set for myself when I sell the rims in my sig below.
