looking good there, a few more mods and your car will look greater!

ollie526

Sorry for the delay. Finally high res pics! It will be interesting to see how these look on everyone else's car who ordered them-so please post as well.

Again these are on 245/35/19 Proxes 4 with stock suspension-No roll and no rubbing. It handles exactly the same as stock though seems to rev a little higher getting going. I paid about $1,500 for everything.

Man, im so glad i jumped on this!! They look really nice man! can't wait till mine get here!!

Should have them sometime next week and will probably have them mounted by next weekend!

Mine are coming with TPMS, center caps, and stems. Did you just reuse the your stock lugs/locks? or did your set come with them?

ollie526

I got my car pre-owned so the previous owner kept his locks, so I ordered new ones. I used the stock lugs no problem. I put my TPMS on the black market since my 04 doesn't use them. The center caps look nice-shiny.

hmm. im half and half with them. they look nice, but not stellar to me. enjoy them though!

chris288

Will do, I really wanted 18's, living in NY I have had problems with 35 series tires in the past with bent rims. I went with the chrome and ordered TPMS while I was at it, was going to order 245-35-19 general UHP's but am going to wait until I know for sure that they fit, if not they are going straight back to the dealer.

ollie526

You ordered additional TPMS? They should have come with the wheels.

Damn those look hot man! The other pictures taken with your phone didn't give them justice.

Adding the A-Spec kit and dropping it will help set the wheels off very nicely

chris288

The e-bay ad didn't say anything about them coming with sensors, maybe they do and I will get 8, if so I will just send the ones I purchased back.

ollie526

Unless they are pre-owned, they should all come sealed in the box. It comes with those and the Acura caps. it doesn't come with the lug nuts or locks.

chris288

Thanks, they are dealer new, guess i'm gonna have to send the other 4 back.

This is the dealer that i got my set from..

"EACH WHEEL COMES WITH A CENTER CAP , TPMS SENSOR, VALVE STEM. THESE WHEELS COME WITH A 1YR LIMITED WARRANTY AT ANY ACURA DEALER WITH PROOF OF PURCHASE."

ollie526

I called those guys when I first started looking. They are good. They actually fit it on another 04 for me to make sure they would fit. I eventually had my dealer match the price from this dealer though. With shipping and tax it came to about the same as it would have been shipped from your dealer

^^ Not a big fan of chrome, but that is one hell of a price man!!

ollie526

Yeah I just told my dealer that the price mentioned was for either chrome or silver, so he matched it. Little white lies never hurt anyone...especially since originally the chromes cost more anyway

Dino81

Looks GREAT! I went with 235/35 B/C i got them for a killer price (new, not used) (Ill have less than 1K in rims AND tires!!!) but thanks for posting the pics, I am also on stock suspension for now (not much longer) but I do have the a-spec body kit. So i got an idea of what they look like.

Also I ordered mine for DCH from Temeculah, They will be here SATurday (tomorrow) so I should have them mounted and installed by tuesday(ish) Ill make sure to post pics when they're on..

Thanks for all your input Ollie, and like I said, IMO they look great

Those vents are To the op those wheels look great!

chris288

Called the dealer, he says they come with TPMS but they are a different frequency and wont work with my 06.. Guess I will have some RDX tpms for sale.

Just bought a set of silver sparkle on ebay! Can't wait to get em'! I will post pics as soon as they arrive. I want to thank the OP for all his help.

Gen7Milan

iTrader: (1)

Haha, that was you! I was looking at the only set of the sparkle finish that wasn't over $800. Will try to see if my local Acura dealership can match the price next week.

lunat1c

Yup 499.00 shipped!

bdogg77

Just pulled the trigger on the same ones. I too have a Blask 6MT and looking forward to seeing what the chromes look like. I hope they fit, so let me know if you have any issues with yours. Thanks.

Dino81

Got mine today and u are right on @ 28lbs each (according to my bathroom scale)

also they have a bit more black to the chrome than I expected, I wouldnt go as far as saying "ebony chrome" but there is black paint along the bead on the inside of the face side. this says to me they may have painted them black before adding the "chrome look" nonetheless, they are not as "chrome chrome" as most aftermarket bling wheels.
Cant wait to get em on!

Gen7Milan

iTrader: (1)

28 lbs? Crap! I hope the sparkle finish is a pound or two lighter. Anyone that received their sparkle finished wheel weight them?

lunat1c

What effect would the addtional weight have on the car? Would I lose performance or handling?

Dino81

I doubt they're much, if any lighter. but IDK for SURE.

loose a little performance, But IDK if it would be anything noticeable. what do stockies weigh? I bet at worse were adding 12-15 lbs to our cars over stocks. maybe Ill break one down off the tire after I get them installed, and weigh it on the same scale, just to get an idea.

I want to order these but gotta wait till I get into my house...

Dino81

notice the black around the bead....

It's finally Monday! I couldn't call the dealer yesterday. Wish me luck that they price-match these!

ollie526

If they are like my dealer, bring in a printout of the lowest buy now cost you can find. Then they will add in shipping and tax. Overall it will be about 50 bucks more than online due to tax, but at least you can walk out with them today. Mine had them on clearance for $600 anyway, so matching $500 wasn't a big deal. Goodluck.

Gen7Milan

iTrader: (1)

Hmm...I guess the trick is to find a dealer with them on hand. The first dealer I called didn't have any in stock and the cheapest he could get them to me is $330 PER wheel plus tax. So just a few pennies shy of $1400, pass.

Still have three more dealers....will update.

lunat1c

I bid on these here and being the only bidder I won them:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2007-...#ht_1010wt_744

The auction I won on was slightly different though, with 499.00 starting bid and free shipping. It was from the same seller (acura dealer) though. Also when searching ebay do a search for "acura rdx 19".

Gen7Milan

iTrader: (1)

Yeah, those are the ones I'm eyeing right now. All the dealers in my area were like when I told them the price. One even told me that they are probably fakes lol.

lunat1c

I'm like half asleep still and what I meant was I bid on a auction from the same seller for those wheels at 499.00 shipped. I would check out that auction though because its still a great deal even with the shipping cost.

ollie526

One thing you could try is calling the dealer directly and working out a deal. It seems like most of these auctions end without any bidders (though that's changed in the last week). I bet if you called and said you wanted to make a deal w/o having to go through ebay, they could match the price since they wouldn't have to pay the ebay fees.

lunat1c

Oh, lol sorry I hope no one on here sees that and out bids you if you decide to go the ebay route.

lunat1c

Check this out, the same acura dealer has a used TL for sale and they put the RDX chrome wheels on it:
