MB Battle 18x9.5 +15 w/ tires

Category: Wheels & Tires
Price: $1000
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): CL 2G, RSX, TL 3G, TL 2G, TL 1G, TSX 1G, Other Honda/Acura
Location (State/Prov/Terr): CA
Item Condition: Used

MB Battles that were driven on for 12 miles. On the car for less than a day. I did manage to blemish one rim when the outer edge of the rim touched my quarter panel and barely grazed the finish on the rim. Tires are Nankang ns-2's 215/40/18 also 12 miles old.






specs are 18x9.5 +15 all around bolt pattern is 5x114.3. they no longer have this size available. I am very very firm on the price. If it doesnt sell, I will just cut into my shock tower and slap them back on.
The reason for taking them off was I was having control arm slap and decided to return the car back to manageable camber specs. This required me to take them off and slap my old rims back on.
im located in santa clara, ca. i prefer not to ship, but if worse comes to worse i will. if you have a set of rims up for trade, let me know the worse i can say is no.

i was sort of low

Im not sure if the TL has more clearance, but on the accord once your lowered past a certain point, the control arm/ball joint slap the shock tower when hitting pavement changes or any bumps.

With the 15 offset you would need to do some fender work for a 2G TSX. See this thread for more info.

Does anyone just want two of these rims to get a staggered setup with +30 in the front that are still available new?

It looks like someone is interested in the tires, I would love these rims but my concern is i think the front has wayyyyy to much poke esp compared to the back, Is there someone else that just wants two rims?

actually to the op, you are selling because of the slap in the front right?... just sell me two rims w/out tires and buy the +30 I would think you could cut your camber wayyy back in the front with +30 that would prly get rid of the slap right... i know it would work on a tl at least lol!

the slap isn't gonna go away at this point. im just way too low even with about -2 degrees camber i slap. so only way to solve this is to make uca clearance. so if no one takes this as a package by memorial day weekend i plan on cutting the towers and running these wheels again.

sorry again for the delay guys. Been hard to get into the garage to take pics of the wheel due to a sick newborn...
anyways here they are... Really hard to capture the blemish but I did the best I could. The pics make it look worse than it really is, but it is what it is....
