So i know the tl type s rims are popular as are the oem rims for my car (its an 02 but i dont have thise rims and im not overly keen on them anyways) what i AM interested in are the nsx rims from the 02+ edition in gunmetal. The bolt pattern is the same but im wondering if they fit our car. Im new to all this so i dont fully understand offsets and all that. If i could find another 7 spoke rim with that groove in the spokes and in gunmetal from a quality manufacturer id take it but it just doesnt seem like we have many options. Also, if i were to go with a bigger rim (17 inch since that olens more doors) what do i need to worry about?

Well in spite of all the advice i received, i think im gonna go with the seven split spoke rims from the 2000 acura 3.2TL. The tire will be half an inch smaller but that rim is sexy. I called acura and they said there is no problem with those rims on our car, incase anyone else was wondering the same thing.

The oem spec for the 02 RL i have for wheels is 16x7 and the 2001 tl seven split spoke oems that im going to order are 16x6.5. Seeing as how the rim is not as wide does anyone know if i need to consider a different tire size to maintain the sweet and smooth ride we all know and love? Im goin with yokohama yk580's once the snow goes away here but if i should be changing tire size, that might open more possibilities (michelin primacy mxm4's specifically).

Good question, seriously I don't know the answer. I think is a good idea to call your local wheelswork.

The verdict is in, the oem tire size for our car fits rims 6-8 inch in width. So yokohama yk580's it is. Ill let everyone know how the new wheels and tires perform once i get some kilometers (we canadians do funny measurements) on them

Try playing around with one of these:

You can get some reasonable sizes to play with and it even tells you where your speedometer will be at compared to actual speed

Hmmm according to the thingy, i can go with a 215/55/16r tire which the primacy mxm4's come in..... Hmmmmmmm.... More decision making now. Dammit
