Question Please Help needed asap!

Hello

Sorry I am not sure or have the time to check right now for it but I am really press for time and want to ask your guys help.

I am looking for rims for winter for my 2008 Acura Tl type S.

I found these rims for sale in the classifieds they say they are Acura TSX rims I believe the A spec ones which are
17"x 7.5 offset of 55

I know that our Type s have stock 17"X 8 offset of 45 I believe. Anyone know if these TSX rims will for my Tl with out any issues? I have not drop my car or anything just looking to use these rims as winter rims.

Here is a picture of the ones I am wanting to get but in gun metal finish.


Any help would be great please and thank you in advance.

Nighthawk type S

those are the TSX Aspec wheels. I think you may have an issue with rubbing due to the brembo's on you car, so you may need some spacers. I'd wait for the fitment gurus to chime in first!

They won't fit. You'll need like a 15mm spacer IIRC.


Some one correct me if I'm wrong

just stick with your stock rims they arent too special for winter

or at least find another set of rims with same specs as ours that way they fit over the brembos you prob wana go 17"x8" +40 or even an 8.5" wide rim

Kro I did not ask you to tell me what you thought they would look like I asked if they would fit my car. Obviously you dont have a clue .

Where I live we get lots of snow and the put down salt like crazy. If I keep my stock Type s rims on they are only 2 years old and will look terrible after 1 winter. Thats why I looking for something eles.
