[QUOTE=jrtls03;11888397]That picture is photoshoped. It's easy for me to tell since I spend so much time with it.

Since you have a TL I would go with 245/35/19 because you can run that tire without issues. I went with a 225/40/19 on my Accord because any wder would have serious rubbing issues in the front.

 

The wheels look perfect for the Accord. The offset is just right.

 

Thanks! I'm actually running a 3mm spacer in the back. I hope to be able to run a 10mm after I roll my fenders some more.

 

does anyone have the chrome looking wheels mounted on a ssm? if so can you post some pictures?

 

hey guys,

where are you getting the tires from? the lowest price i could find is $628 shipped from discout tire and they are general exclaim...not the best tire either

 

anyone try these on a ua5?

 

Hey, does anyone have pictures of the rdx wheels with aspec suspension?

 

What's the width of these 19" wheels? I like my stock wheel width, but not sure if these are same width or not. Any ideas??

 

I got mine Hankook Ventus from Belle Tire. I paid $840 out the door with a 3-year road hazard warranty. If I blow the tire before it reaches 3/32" I get a new one. $628 isn't bad at all, and the Generals are actually pretty highly rated tires on Tire Rack. I got Discount Tire to match and beat Belle Tire at $800 even but I went with Belle Tire and put it on my Goodyear card so I can have 6 months interest free to pay them off. I would have to get a new CC if I went with Discount Tire and I didn't want another one.

They are 8" wide, same as stock.

 

Thanks Gen7Milan!

 

Pics as promised

Mediablasted and prepped




NBP Center Caps






Very happy with results!

 

Those look sick. I love the time attack look

 

Dude the powdercoat looks so sickk

 

wasnt sure I'd like them, but DAMN they look sick on! nicely done!

 

Looks like something Batman would drive! Love those lug nuts.

 

wheels came out sick! picking mine up from the dealer today. still trying to decide on tire size though 235 or 245's...

 

Wow!! Hot!!

 

that looks amazing

 

Wow, thanks guys! Didnt expect that much love....but they are getting as much attention in person too Still wish I hadnt bent my old rims!

 

Those look really nice. I'm digging the stripe. Subtle but really sets it off.


JRTLS-- Go 245. a little extra rubber is nice

 

those look phenomenal gerzand.

 

Gerzand, wheels are lookin sick on yo whip!

how is the ride quality with the 19's? do you feel every little bump or pretty smooth still? do you guys feel a loss of mpg with these mounted?

 

damn too bad i can't see pics at work

are you using a spacer in the rear as well?

 

Ride quality is almost identical to my 17's. No loss of mpg, though hard acceleration suffers slightly due to the weight of the wheel. Its not noticable in normal cruising.


Not yet, but ill be adding some project kics 10mm's sometime in the future to the rear.

 

What size are the tires? Where you get those lug nuts? Came out SICK!!

 

Fronts are 235/35 Goodyear/Dunlop Fierce Instincts.

Rears are 245/45 General Exclaim UHP's from my old 19's.

I decided not to go with 245's on the front when purchasing the new pair of tires because I had rubbing issues up front with the 245 Generals and my nearly 2'' drop...WITH and WITHOUT a camber kit when slightly turning the wheel and going up an incline ramps/driveways.

GUYS, the Fierce Instincts handle AMAZING thru corners, yet are supple over roads imperfections/bumps. Love them. Much better than the Exclaims which I had on all four corners of the vehicle with my old rims (2 of which have since been scrapped since they had 0 tread left).

 

thats probably the route I'll go. Planning on dropping the car on tein springs, about 1.5 inches. just worried about rubbing.

 

So these should mount right on without spacers and any sort of fitment options for an 05 automatic?

 

Daaaang, are you sure you don't mean 245/40?

I also have to report how satisfied I am with the ride quality on the Hankook Ventus tires. I went with 225/40/19. Any wider and I would rub hardcore in the front.

 

LOL... i obviously had a mis-type. Meant 35 sidewall! haha

 

Gen7Milan,

Your accord looks the best on here

 

Dude, those look crazy sick!!!

 

in searching more about these wheels it seems like they come in 2 different bolt patterns. are there any markings on them that'll tell me these are the right ones for my 3g?

 

^^ they don't come in 2 diff bolt patterns. All are 114.3 in this wheel model

 

Thanks! Although there aren't that many Accords on this forum.

if anyone is looking for these I picked them up from my dealer for $600. Here's the information if your interested.

Acura of Westchester- 914-834-2112
ask for sal. you can also email him at sal_gambitta@acuraofwestchester.com

Also, I'm not affiliated in any way with this dealership, just thought it was a good deal that I'd pass on.

 

I finally got my rims and tires installed today It was a rainy/dreary day, so I only have one pic which really doesnt show how nice they are imo. I got the Continental ExtremeContact DWS in 245/35/19, and they are very nice riding and low noise. I didnt notice any changes in ride quality. If anything I think it is better than my old Pirellis.

I am going to check tomorrow morning but the shop i went to set the pressures to 33 psi all around based on the RDX tire sticker that came with the rims (for a 245/45/19 tire). I emailed Continental customer service and they just said keep it at what the factory pressure is, so they werent much help lol. I may increase that a little, but I am not sure I should. I didnt feel as if the tire was too squishy etc at 33, so maybe I should just keep it where it is?

 

Sweet. Someone with the rims and A-Spec. I am debating getting the kit and this helps me a lot. Thanks!

 

get the kit man! you can't go wrong.... I'll post some updated pics later tonight, i finally got my supercup installed and she's sitting perfect! well almost perfect, i just need get my hands some spacers now to sit flush

i swear, just when you thought it was over, 1 mod leads to another!!!
