What's a good wheel and offset for my TSX? Trying to go flush!!
Hey so I have been thinking of switching up my set up on my '04 Acura TSX. Not sure what rims to get and what size. I'm thinking something around a 9.5 width and somewhere between +40 - +20 for an offset. Any input would be greatly appreciated! I currently have H&R extended studs and 10mm sleeve-over spacers in the rear.
Here's a pic of my car now:
Thanks!

I'm not looking for any information on stretched tires. I know enough about that. I'm just looking for suggestions on wheels and offsets. It's not staggered then it's safe. Nothing wrong with a little more tread. But thanks for your heads up.

Well, this is what 18x8.5 +32 front and 18x9.5 +32 rear wheels look like with 225/40/18 tires.
The rear tires are stretched, but the front tires are sized to fit that wheel. 245/40/18's would be the ideal size for the 18x9.5's. I would guess to say that an 18x9.5 +40 with 245/40/18's would fit in the front with fender rolling and a little bit of negative camber. The rear wheels you could probably get away with an 18x9.5 +32 with 245/40/18 with some negative camber and rolled quarter panels.

Thanks for the response ToyoMatt84. That TSX is super clean. Love the set up. Do you know if this one in has any fender rolling or quarter's cut? Im planning to roll mine soon. Got a really good deal. What's the next camber kit to go negative camber? Do you think the all black would look clean on mine? I have a friend that has a set of BNIB TSW Valencia 18x9.5 +20 offset. No tires though. Could be clean. I love JDM wheels, dont get me wrong but I also want something that hasn't been done since its 2011 and not 2004 lol.

As for the car posted, I know that the fenders and quarter panels are rolled just by looking at them (you can see the slight angle change of the arch metal). As for a camber kit, I wouldn't have a clue to what manufacturer you need to look at since I'm not a TSX owner. Again, this isn't the appearance forum, so I really can't say much towards looks. This forum is strictly a technical forum with wheel and tire knowledge/questions in mind.
As for the wheel choice, I don't buy brands based solely on appearance. I start with the manufacturing process and the quality of the wheel before anything. TSW's in the past have been pretty poor on quality. I really don't have much interest in them for that fact. They have made strides in recent times to bring their quality level up, but I've not paid much attention to them because they're too large for my cars and far too heavy.
