SOLD! FS: RonJon Legend 19" Wheels

These are the Liquid Silver 19" and are less than a year old, in excellent condition. I had them on my 05 RL but traded it for a G37, therefore selling. Price new with shipping was $1455. Also have Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 245/40/19 summer ultra performance tires mounted, also less than a year old, ~ 1/2 treadlife remaining. TPMS sensors for the RL also included and mounted. Wheel tire combo is balanced and ready to install. Comes with all lugnuts and centerpieces. Total price for wheels/tires/TPMS sensors with tax was $3000 new.

Asking price for everything $1500 obo. I live in the Indianapolis area, local pickup preferred, will ship at buyers expense. Any questions welcomed.

I'm interested.

Aznpersuasion is right, we need pics.

I have an ASM TL-S and I want to make sure I can see the rims and any imperfections. Imperfections happen and that's okay, just point any out that exist.

I live in Minneapolis. If the rims are acceptable, then we can talk price and shipping options.

Thanks

Just so everyone knows these wheels wouldnt fit TLs or TSXs, of any generation.

2G RL lug pattern is 5X120.

I will definitely get some pics up, I am out of town all day but will try to get them up tomorrow. They really are in very good condition so I think you'll be pleased with pictures. I've never posted pics before but I'm sure I can figure it out.

The RonJon brochure has these wheels on both TL and TSX. They also will fit the MDX. FYI.

^^ TL and TSX bolt pattern is 5X114.3, the wheels that you see in the brochure are the same model but with different bolt pattern and offset .

Correct.

The 1995+ RL wheels only fit the following models, because of the 5X120 bolt pattern and larger 14X1.5 studs and mounting holes.

2005+ Acura RL and Odyssey and Honda Ridgeline

Standard RL wheels are 5X120, 17x8 with a +50 offset and 64.1 hub. Thread size 14X1.50

Wheels for 3G TL are 5x114.3, 17x8 with a +45 offset, thread size 12X1.50

I stand corrected. Thanks for the info. I guess my wheels are for the 05+ RL Odyssey and Ridgeline. Pics to come.

Here are some pics for anyone interested.
http://s529.photobucket.com/albums/dd334/DoctorTuna/

I hope this works, never did it before but the pics are quite clear and show the excellent condition everything is. As mentioned, wheels and tires purchased last September. I put them on the RL at 25K miles and took them off at 34K miles so they have less than 10K miles total. Thought I was going to keep the RL but I test drove the G37 and traded it. These wheels/tires have never been curbed or suffered any unusual wear and tear, basically just commuting miles. If there's any other questions please let me know.

This wheel/tire package now advertised in my local area as well. Nice upgrade from the stock 17" that come on the 2G RL. Will accept reasonable offers.

Doc, did you have to make any adjustments to get the 19" wheels to fit?

I'm just toying with the idea of keeping my winter tires on the 17" rims and use the 19" for the summer tires.

What did the 19" wheels do to change or improve the ride?

Thanks

larger rims do NOT improve any ride, from track to just everyday street driving.

I just did some research on the pros and cons of larger rims and Lippstuh is correct with regard to ride quality.

Doc, please disregard my questions, as I have decided to hold off on getting any wheels right now. I'm thinking the backup camera might be my next upgrade

Thanks for your post. I know you may not be interested right now but I will give you my personal impression. I was worried about a decrease in ride quality due to the narrow sidewall of the tire, but the stock suspension seems to soak up the road irregularities quite nicely, so no perceived change in ride quality. There were absolutely no adjustments made to the vehicle otherwise. These wheels were specifically designed for the 2G RL, I literally took off the stock and bolted on the RonJons. The overall diameter of the wheel/tire combo is identical to stock at 26.7", so there is no speedometer variation or affects on the ABS/VSA operation. It's as safe an upgrade as you get.

In regards to performance, I do feel a definite difference, for many reasons. Turn in is seems more precise and crisp, road handling in the twisties is superior and more confidence inspiring, plus you lower the unsprung weight with this particular upgrade. On the aesthetic side, it is night and day, the car looks much more performance oriented than the stock wheel/tire setup, yet it has a stock look, very tasteful, IMO. Plus, you can swap out the 19" for stock for winter driving without having to change over TPMS every time, specifically why I bought an extra set for my 19" wheels. If you're interested in the future, and I still have them, maybe we can make a deal?? Thanks for your interest!!

This set is still available for any interested parties. I've read that the 09 TL also has the 5x120 lug pattern so an option for any 09 TL owners who would like a tasteful performance upgrade. 2nd Generation RL owners will also like these wheels!!
