Hey guys I have a question for you. A friend of mine sold his Tsx and has a set of Honda HFP rims (18 inch). He wants to sell them for 500 bucks which is a great deal but the tires are in ok condition. I was hesitant because i just put tires on my car and wish i waited but still the rims are worth it.

Ive been trying to look and see if anyone has put these on a TL and i cant find em.




Thats a pic of them on the TSX

I have the 2008 tl with stock rims and wanted something close to type s rims without getting type s rims. Good deal?

 

those r nice id go for it....if not if he wants to ship it ill take them.

 

I believe they are a 45 offset but only 7" wide. If so, they will move the outside of the wheel/tire in about 1/2".
Your call.

What make and size tires are on the Honda wheels?

I'd also recommend a 245/40-18 for the TL or TLS as they would retain the OE diameter, but they are to be used on a 8"-9.5" width wheel.

 

the tires are dunlop 215/40zr18 85w

Theyre pretty pricey tires but what do u think about the fit on the TL? I had a friend who really screwed up his Is250 brand new with crap aftermarket rims.

 

can't see anything

 

 

I have a 2008 WDP so i guess it would look similar to this

 

A +45, 7" wide wheel with a 215mm tire is going to look really bad on the TL. It'll look like like a fat girl on roller skates. Even the stock +45, 8" wheel with 235mm looks too sunken into the wheel well imo.

 

Hell no dnt but them..u need at last 8.0 wide

 

Nice wheel(s). Bad fitment.

 

I like the wheels. But Bearcat says bad fitment

 

Well since they are your friends wheels why dont you just put 2 on and see if you like the way they look on your car?

 

I bought them. Figured I would try them out and if not i could easily sell them and make a quick buck. Is the fit really that bad to the point where i shouldnt even bother with putting them on?

 

IMO, yes, probably it is that bad.


But, if you've got 'em throw 'em on and see what you think. Might as well.

 

I just put these rims on my car and they look great. I didnt add spacers yet but im doing that next weekend. What do u guys think?

 

Your speedo is going to be off becayse the tires are .6" shorter ... also just about an inch narrower.

I like the wheel style ... I just wouldn't run domething smaller than OEM unless it s winter setup.

 

I think they look good, and I like the color of them.

 

the design looks good, butt, the specs.
throwing spedo off and that sunken in look =

 

Not a bad looking wheel, but I'd go with at least 27mm front/32mm rear spacers. You could even go 30/35 without any issues. You've lost a lot of track with these wheels.

^meaning; bad for performance.

 

Yeah. I would have saved the money for proper spec wheels.

 

to be honest with you the drive didnt change much. In fact, i picked a friend up and he didnt notice the rims were even on. After adding spacers i think itll be a lot better but im definitely satisfied with the performance thus far.
