Does anybody know if 2 piece Petrol Bohemia 19x8.5" wheels fit the 07 TL-S. I went to the website but didn't find out? They are a 5 star style like the TL 06, Silver painted face with polished lip.

JD TL-S, I had the same problem as you trying to find wheels and tires and everything. I just went ahead to an autowork shop and had the guy there take care of everything.

He asked what style i was looking for, what size, how much i wanted to pay, etc. Then he camp up with a list of like 3 wheels. I chose one of them that I really liked. Then he set me up with tires and the TPMS. It was pretty cheap too. It came out to like $2200 out the door. It was $300 cheaper than i could find it on the internet.

I went to D & R on 41 in Highland Park. I thought they were great. Talk to Dan, i guess he's the owner, if you go there.

Thanks alot, I appreciate it I just can't buy a wheel I don't like the looks of. I have seen quite a few I like, but not sure if they fit. I REALLY like a 5 star style or 5 straight spoke wheel kind of like Hero's. I like a silver painted center eiyh a polished lip. I DON'T like wheels that are ALL chrome
I also like machined aluminum. Thats my choice. I was starting to like the mesh style like 5Zigen Sports Engine SC3000 but even though they look great, I am not sure if they are aggressive enough for me. Her is an example of a wheel I think looks fantastic= 2007 BMW 335i with sport package 18". Another= 2007 Audi RS4 19" wheels are 100% AWESOME My car is ASM and chrome is way too bright, it makes the silver look dark, it outpowers the color. And black looks good on black cars but not on silver. This is crazy, I need to go to bed so I can get up and debadge and wash my car. Thanks, maybe tomorrow I will see something I like. I WILL NOT USE spacers, no good. Jeff D.

Sorry I need to keep this post active, People keep starting new posts on same topic. It would be Fantastic if somebody could research this problem and list what wheels fit. I would be willing to pay somebody $100 for a real good list of brand/model, offset, specs on wheels that fit!!!

Are ASA wheels good quality? Tirerack has CHROME ASA ST-3, 19"x 8" that they say will fit the 07 TL-S they are a closeout, reg. $309 for $149. They are a 5 spoke flat style. BUT I don't want CHROME. ASA makes it in silver, but the sale ones at Tirerack are not

MAIN QUESTION: Are ASA wheels quality, or are they soft, shit, etc?

It's hard to compile a list because of the different shapes of each wheel. I know my wheels clear the brembos by like 1/4 of an inch because of the way that the spokes curve. My wheels are 19x8.5. I'm not sure about the offset tho, mayb +35? They're six spoke and the spokes are curved a little so they clear the brembos.

I read the best way to get compatible wheels on many of the websites is to put in the Acura TL with MT into the fitting guides. That way it accounts for the larger brakes.

Wow, I had no idea you guys would be down that late. I live like 2 min away from the Dunkin and the Acura dealer. I wish you luck with finding your wheels. If you do go to D&R, tell them Steven with a black TL sent you. They were pretty nice there and were easy to work with. How many Type-S's showed up? Looks like two of them.

BTW, you'll want to talk to Vic about pricing and fitment. I think he's the head honcho in that place. I've been to this store in person and they do a LOT of imports. I heard that this store is one of the largest Rays (Volk Racing, G-Games, Gram Lights, etc) retailers.

Although, if you are ordering from them, make sure they put EVERYTHING in writing. That includes how many lug nuts and hub centric rings are included in the purchase and so on.

245/35 R19 on 19x8.5" with 38 offset should be OK with the car. I have 245/35 R19 on 19x8.5 and 35 offset and no rubbing, even with 5 heavy guys on board.
Just re-reading all over. I will call Vic again and have a nic elong talk on anything that fits 07 TL-S with no reguards to price

with a 19" wheel, a lot will fit. that opens the door to more wheels that will fit, versus looking at an 18" wheel.
