Acura ILX

Hi,

I recently bought a 2017 ILX Premium spec; however, I want to change the current rims i have to the Aspec Black Machined Wheels. I was wondering if it would fit with the current tires that come in the premium (non aspec). Or would I have to get new tires along with the rims.

You should have bought one with the OEM 19's.

Premium ILX wheels are 17x7. A-Spec wheels are 18x7. OP will need to have tire shop stretch tires to fit.

Hella stretch, yo!

there is no possible way to put it on. the diameters are DIFFERENT.
