Don't have them, but can't see why the 19x8-40mm with 245/35-19 tires wouldn't fit. The 40mm only moves the wheel out .20" and the tire height is only .06" taller than a 245/45-17 which fits with no problem. Don't see a listing on the hub bore size though.

Found this site and the following models are listed for TL fitment:
1980CRF405114C76 19 8 40 5-114.3 $408.00
1995CRF405114C76 19 9.5 40 5-114.3 $408.00

thanks for the info. I thought they would fit was just wondering what they would look like on a TL. I've only seen them on a 3 series.

this is one of the wheels I was thinking to do for my wife's car. I have seen it on bimmers and a few audi and they look amazing, the concave face makes it unique

I have been debating if I should purchase the Crofts or the Snettertons myself. What do you all think? I would be looking for an 18 inch rim, so that my ride quality isn't really sacrificed. My thoughts on this are that the croft woud look a little larger because the web design runs all the way to the edge of the rim, but the Snetterton's have a really nice chrome lip, which I think merges the nice sport design and a luxury look. Please let me know. Also, if anyone finds a picture of either of the rims on a TL, please send it to me as I would like to see it.

Cadwell FTW!! Croft's are nice too, but I think I'll be going with the Cadwells in 18x8...not absolutely sure I'll do it, but those look sick.

a week or so ago i actually test fit a 20" croft on my TL. to be exact it was 20x8.5 +40 in gunmetal. chrome in that wheel is a no-go. it's just too much chrome...gunmetal for sure. anyway, the wheel fit fine and looked good so i decided to have the shop order the rest of the set but the next day i found some rims i fell in love with and cancelled my croft order and placed a new one. the rims look great on the car though. the full face makes them look HUGE! 19's would look awesome.

btw...on the tsw site there is a pic of a new 5 series bmw with crofts on it. i always thought the cars had a slight resembelence so that might help you out. good luck!
