!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , and then I did

18's instead of the stock 17s.

~45 offset instead of stock 55. Tyres on the new wheels are 225 wide instead of 215. Fits better than stock, and doesn’t scrub

and 45 profile instead of 50. I like the fit, but when these snow tyres on them are done I’ll aim for something with a 40 profile, possibly 35 instead.

Also, need some lowering

Nice - looks good.

I put Miata 10 spokes on my Mazda 3 hatch back in the day - 6 lbs lighter per corner!

I still think it’s sacrilegious , but they do look good.

Now you just gotta find some Acura caps and you’re set.

Nissan rims? I guess Nissan will finance anything.

Awww, you didn’t go for the 350Z anniversary wheels? People put those on everything! (sorry about the photobucket watermark, but kinja won’t let me link the other photo I found)

Mazda guys are in on the action

They look good on lots of cars imho

Hey, you've improved the reliability of your car with those Nissan rims.

There was only one option for my TSX, waffle time!

I concur, those look good.

but there wasnt a cheap set on local CL with snow tyres on em, so...

but its an option for long term non-snow wheels

Ahhh, i missed that they were winters. Well they still do look pretty good on top of the utilitarian benefit!

someone on the AcuraTSX fb group has Infiniti G35 wheels, and I’m smitten

Oh, those look good on there! I just realized your car is also a TSX, from the little shot at the top i was thinking TL, but i see my mistake. The TSX is a much better looking car IMHO, which isn’t to say the TL is bad, just that I think the TSX is one of the best looking 4 doors of the last couple of decades.

I was gonna suggest the Ray’s forged wheels from the G35, but 19's are a PITA and the TSX is likely small enough they’d look a little goofy. Plus they’re probably $$$ now a days. But I never liked the stock 18's on the G35 and now i know why: They were meant for the TSX!

Those Rays costs between $400-$1000/set, depending on condition and how quickly they’re trying to get rid of them. I almost got some but then I went 18s instead

18 is a better wheel size anyway I suppose. They are nice OEM forged wheels though which is cool.

For the quality, they’re really cheap. Where else would you find a set of forged wheels for ~ $600/set?

Nice, I’ll be watching to see what you lower yours with. I have an Accord but a lot of the suspension bits are interchangeable and I can run TSX springs. I’m still looking out for some stock TSX wheels here for mine

i’d happily sell you mine if you were local :)

best I can, folks are recommending the BC coilovers pretty much unanimously

but, pricey. so we’ll see. I usually opportunize  on second hand parts,

lol if you weren’t so far and I some more money

I was going to go for tein springs probably, I just wanna lower like 2 in and be done with it. Most ppl seem to go for the tein coilovers though.
