Smile Giovanna Dalar's



Anyone here own this car? I am thinking about getting these wheels in 20" or 22" I also just ordered H&R springs for a drop so am not sure if 22" will rub or not.

Oh, I have a 2009 Acura TL sh-AWD/Tech. I am wheel shopping and it's between the Dalar's or Work Schwert's SC2 but am not sure if the bolt pattern and offset will work. Any help is appreciated.

I like the second choice. Dalars do not have a lip.

22s may rub with the drop. I would be curious to find out as well. The rims in the pic look tight (the Schwert's). Is that 22s on TL pic posted? . . . nice!

The Dalar's on the TL are 20's. I was looking at Acuragodess' thread and she has the 22'' Giovanna Cuomos and I like that better because it is proportionally balanced with the size of the TL. I was surprised how it gobbled up those 22's with ease! Let's put it this way, I have seen many 3rd Gen. TL's with 20's and they looked huge and unproportional. With the 3G TL, imo, 19's look perfect. I am still leaning towards 20's Work Wheels and with a drop they might look awesome. Kind of like what Buckvegas has but his is a FWD and according to the Acura rep I talked to, the FWD rides a tad higher than the AWD's. I need to verify that by measuring it for myself

Yeah I hear you. Work wheels are awesome wheels plus more classy and less ricey. Dunno something about the Giovanna's that makes that TL look badass!

The Schwert's hands down too. If you are looking for a good one piece wheel I would go with a Vossen wheel myself!

Well AZine won't let me PM you since I have to accure 5posts/15 days. I was looking into Vossen but I was told that it will be near impossible to get the 5x120 or 5X4.72mm with 35-42 offsets. If I am wrong let me know as I love Vossen Wheels and have used them on my Audi/Lexus cars I have owned. Thanks and hope I didn't piss anyone by posting "copyright" pics.

If you get work Schwert (which i highly recommend)

Get

20 x 9

5x120 +40

with a 245/35/20... if you get 235/35/20, you definitely wont rub

I will be getting a work wheel, with those exact specs... different wheel tho'

Not meaning to change the topic but that bumper looks red and the car is burgundy, yucky paint match in the sunlight. I recently had a loaner in this color and was so glad I chose the black!!!

Hey, thanks for the info!! I have a question though, I also want to go with the Schwert but I am having a hard time finding it in the 5x120 bolt pattern. Tried many different places and everybody is telling me that they cant make a custom bolt pattern for these wheels and can only get a bolt pattern I believe of 5X112. If I can't find the schwert then I am definately getting the Work Vs wheels but I wanted to be different since most everybody want the Vs wheels(spokes)
