Hey guys... just came across this!
Very interested, although I did not see anyone out there with a 6MT, or am I wrong.

Please someone confirm that these will fit a 04-06 6MT, I would love to get 19" on my NBP!!!!

Oh yeah, and since the TPMS does not work, anyone know how much that goes for per tire?

Thanks,
paweł

If you go with the generals, I'd give them a call and they can probably give you the exact psi.

In general, how often do you guys fill them up to keep them at the correct pressure?

When the sidewall bulges out too much for me to say "Ah fuck it, I'll do it tomorrow."



Haha, but in all seriousness, I try to check it about every month, usually after I was the car so I don't get brake dust on my fingers.

Rims were waiting on the porch for me as soon as I got home,,,, and as soon as I opened the box I had a feeling they weren't even gonna be close to fitting, jacked up the car anyway, just to satisfy myself and low and behold,,,,, I was right, they aren't even remotely close to fitting, would need about a 1/2" spacer to clear... What a shame, they look AWESOME on the car.... Anybody with a 3G A.T. within an hours drive of NYC want them for exactly what I paid for them, before they go back to the dealer ?

Even with the 1/2" spacer, would they stick out from the fenders a lot?

550.00 picked up in the tri-state area, plus 150.00 for the correct frequency tpms sensors. They really do look great on the car...

I ordered mine last Sat and they were shipped yesterday. I am soooooo upset that they do not clear the Brembos!!! I contacted the seller via Ebay and asked him to canx the shipment and to refund my money. Hopefully he will as hes says on his listing and it says it fits Acura TL's 04-08. Guess we will see.....

Sorry you guys had bad luck. I was hoping the post I had read a while ago was wrong since you were all buying them. If dealer makes you pay shipping back, you could probably craigslist them for profit for people who didn't know about the deal.

dealer is sending out a call tag for Fed X to pick up, he told me he would refund everything since it was his fault. Told him to change his listing and take off Type S and 6mt's

Then you'll need to go with about a 15mm spacer and longer studs, then who knows where the tire will end up ? Might work, but someone smarter about RDX offsets and spacers will have to chime in... Then again how safe will it be with such a thick spacer ?

Heck of a deal man. My Proxes 4 were 200 each mounted, balanced and installed. Then tax and alignment and it was like 950

I found some washers that = 15 mm exactly, if the rims are still at my house I will try them and let you know if they fit with 15mm spacers, although there is no guarantee once you put tires on them that they wont rub..

They fit,,, plain and simple,,, looks like all you need is some 15mm Ichiba version 2 wheel spacers, about 100.00.... Trying to decide if I should keep them or not..

So how are the lugs, how many turns can u get w the lug nuts? Surely we can get spacers cheaper elsewhere? Take some pics maybe from the top of the fender and side to see how far they stick out!!!

Thanks man

Too late, stock wheel is back on,, with 15 mm there is about 3 threads left, those rims are 2,600 I got mine for 550.00 shipped, whats an extra 100.00 for good spacers ?.

with the 15mm they look to be almost exactly the same distance as the stock 17's... I'm trying to get an idea about peoples feelings regarding spacers and their safety.

No, tried different combinations, 12's will not work, 12.7 leaves less than 1mm space, you could probably get away with 14 but 15 looks to be ideal since it seems to be a standard. It's either make these work with spacers for about 650.00 or pay an extra 700 and get the ron jon chrome inspyres, or another grand for the legends.

Good point man haha getting the rims for 500 shipped. Hell I'll spend another 100 on 15mm spacers. They even come with extended lugs. Found em on eBay 80-100 for hub centric, Use bing cash back if u buy it now!

Sorry to break it to ya man but ur going to be rubbing like crazy. I even did 235/35's, and even with no camber kit, my 1.8" drop rubs when slightly turning wheel and scaling an inline such as a driveway. You'll want to roll your fenders up front. Rears will be fine except for a small amount of rubbing on the aspec kit when you have weight in the rear.
