Post pictures of your ILX with aftermarket wheels!
I know there are alot of threads on what would look good, what would fit etc!
But besides Slammed ILX does anyone else have new shoes on? Spring/Summer is coming up and its shopping time! Maybe this thread can help people make a decision. I'm personally looking for either Volk RE 30's Weds Sport TC105N Gram Lights 57G Work Emotion 11R at least 18x9! Anyways Post pictures up of your ILX!! Also include Size, width and offset: Tire Size: Fender Modification: Lowered? With What? and how much of a drop?: Thanks! Simon |
why such big wheels on our cars? then again, i was never into the whole hellaflush movement.
I'm going to be getting some 17x8 with 225/45/17 or 235/40/17 (depending on fender issues). more meat! debating between a several different Volks and SSR's. |
The only wheel I like on our cars is TE37s and they don't concave without needing to roll fenders.. And I am not doing it. Will be stock for a while.. I really would get something like 18x9.5+22 if it wouldn't require a fender roll once I drop it.

Updated! drop to come in the next two weeks or so!
Sorry for the crappy pics! taken with my phone CE28's 18x8.5 +40 Tires 225 40 18 Pirelli Pzero Rosso |
Nice!! Drop will really set it off right, can't wait to see :thumbsup:
|
18 is definitely the right size for this car.
|
18s are perf...and, to be honest, it doesn't look that bad on stock height...only thing is I'd get thinner wheels (like 8") and run 235s
|
^the comment was to say for my car I'm going to do that, because I want a wider tire and I'm not a big fan of wider wheels, because it may create issues with rubbing / clearance.
|
Ekei EKM3. 18x8 45 offset Gunmetal, Stock Suspention. :rolleyes: im new to the forums but ill post a picture soon.

I was running 17x9's on my car with rpf1's. I'm debating if I want to go 9.5 or 10 wide. Trying to find a clean set of BBS rs or ssr spR's in 18's are harder then I anticipated /:
|
No more pictures of wheels already mounted? CE28s looks great. 18s do looks good but now Im thinking 19s can be pulled off pretty easier.
Maybe Ill go 18 for now, 8.5 sounds good. Maybe less offset. Then in the future when she's bagged Ill go 19, hopefully own the car by then, and get those wheel wells lookin sexy as fawk. |

Those will look sweet! Can't wait to see the wide combo. I'd go 9.5 so you can get a 245-255 tire. I think 10 is too wide for the car.

So there is a guy selling a set of 19" ROH Fury wheels for $700 with tires. 245/35/19s.
http://images.craigslist.org/3E63Nd3...8dc96c143c.jpg Do you guys think these will look good on the car? Mind you Coilovers are on order with RedShift so the car will be lowered a little. |
I am kind of iffy on the spoke design personally. For a car like this I like a bit more spokes or a larger design of spoke
|
The Ron Jon website has a sweet pic of a black ILX with lip kit and some 19s. Looks beautiful.
|
Yeah, I decided to move on past those.. with 245 series tires and my car being lowered its going to rub like crazy.
|
I don't think those ROH Fury wheels will look good. I like the idea of 5 spoke design wheels like CV3s or Stance Sc-5 on this car though
|
I do as well.. I'm just not sure how ready I am to drop $2000 on wheels and tires.
|
not many pics in this post your pics thread haha

19" x 7.5" Racing Hart C2, Diamond Cut 3-Piece
I only installed one of them (they're for my Legend). They need new tires but I think they might look nice. http://drivetofive.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/c2.jpg |
Tyson, those look really sharp on your silver! I say install them!

Wow 4cruizn those are 19's? Looks good. My vision for my car is to have that matte silver machined look with the rims. I think it'll go great with the car color. Kinda like this Lexus is250 http://www.clublexus.com/forums/atta...vvscv3_0fa.jpg |
So I've got a guy that's somewhat local that's got a set of wheels for pretty good price...
http://i1356.photobucket.com/albums/q740/jdmfanbrat/6.jpg How do you guys feel these will look. Probably going to change the lugs to a different color though :) |

While I was at the dealership today to fix my "Emission system problem" The parts guy was boasting about one of their customer's ILX's. Saying how they dropped it and put some wheels. So I had to take a look of course. Sorry, I only have two working pictures because it was super sunny outside, and I couldn't tell which pictures came out clear. (Samsung Galaxy SII) Haven't seen anyone rock the Blue Pearl this hard before. Looked great.

Why's there a huge acura badge on the front windshield? Also looks like he has the front spoiler but no sideskirt, wonder how that looks. Like how the wheels are color matched.
|
What size are those tires? I can't really read the tire info...235/45/17?
|
I don't like the look...personally.

The acura banner is just for looks. Normally it is for the race team's logo. Check out Honda Verno or Spoon Sports. http://us-f4-edit.store.yahoo.com/I/..._1995_29772292 Not color matched. Not pearl like the poster said either. That is Mag Blue. Very popular in the honda/acura world. It is special order from Volk. I wanted some Mag Blue REs so bad for the integra... now I want them for the ilx... just in 18 instead of 16. lol http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3295/...bfd99be4_o.jpg |
im excited for your build thread!!!
|
I def think 18 is the best blend of looks and performance for our cars!
