TSW Nurburgring Sizing Problems

Hey, so for my next set of wheels, i'm looking to get 17x8 Nurburgring Wheels for my 05 TL.
The problem is that they only offer a 35 offset for the 114.3 bolt pattern, for whatever reason, and I know that the stock Acura TL wheels have a +45mm offset. I'm sure i'd be able to run the wheels fine, without problems, but I was worried about the tires. Would the tires I have that fit on the stock TL wheels with +45mm offset fit on the TSW wheels with a +35? I haven't really focused on the wheels/tires/fitment nonsense before, so excuse me if this is a stupid question.


Basically, to recap, will tires that fit on stock 05 acura TL wheels fit on TSW Nurburgring Wheels that are the same size, but have an offset of +45mm?

35 offset is fine. I had 18x9 with a 35 offset, 245/40/18 and had no problem. I have the Aspec suspension which drops about an inch. I went to 18x9 with a 40 offset and 255/40/18, no problems what so ever, still, my fenders are rolled!! Good luck!
