^no, they are the wrong bolt pattern

DedRok · 07-07-2008, 02:20 PM

They are a different bolt pattern, yes... but are there adapters out there for them?

I have been looking for a good side view shot to show the offset of the 55 mm 2005 tsx wheels. Let me see some, if you have them.

I like the look of a wheel and tire package that stick out flush (or just a little inside) with the fenders.

How can I get that with a stock height EX coupe with 04-05 TSX wheels with 215/50/17 tires, will I need spacers? What would that look like with out spacers and no drop (from the side)?

Thanks for any help!

drahgon · 07-17-2008, 04:09 PM

yeah, will definitely need spacers if you want the flush look. OEM SI wheels are 17x7 +45 and are far from flush. I don't know the width of the TSX wheels, but I would think they are 7 or maybe 7.5. You would need at least a 15-20mm spacer to get anywhere near flush with the fenders with the high offset TSX wheels. Without them, the wheels will look sunken in your wheel wells.

okay, the tsx's are 7 wide

Has anybody done this? (put spacers on 17x7 55mm offset tsx wheel for the flush look) Are they safe?

What is offset for the flushed look? 40, 35?

Thanks for the help

xvoltm2 · 07-17-2008, 04:45 PM

^35mm is pretty flush but to go from 55 to 35 (20mm spacer) you would most likely need extended studs...

I don't think they would look bad on a Fiji- But I am not a huge fan of the wheels in general. They suit a bigger car better- the spoke design doesn't flow with a smaller car IMO.

I never thought of putting those Accord rims on the Civic. They look a little weird. I like the 18 inch HFP's MUCH better.
