I got a set of Konig Imagines about 4 months ago for my tC. They are 18X7.5 with a +35 offset. I wrapped them in 225/40's and they fit great with no rubbing. Hope this helps any body looking to mod their tC.

True, but the speedo was never reset for american market. So the stock 185/60R15 is smaller then the stock JDM tires. JDM runs 185/65R15, so by running the tire you have listed, you will become closer to the perfect 0% error.

Default I need some info, I'm a newbie

I'm a new xB owner. I used to be very deep into Honda drag racing, was building a car to do left and right turns as well as straightaways. Anyway, long story short, I don't do Hondas now, but have Honda stuff to trade for new fun stuff for my xB.
I have a set of 17 Tenzo R Pac 10's, they are offset for an Acura/Honda. I know I'm going to have a problem with the fitment of these wheels. I don't know who to contact about spacers (shims), or extended studs, can anybody help me?

I have 19x7.5 with a 35 offset and they sit and look perfectly flush on the tC.

I have a 2006 xB w/18x7.5" Centerline RPM wheels. +42mm offset with 215/35R18 Tires. On stock suspension. No rubbing at all!! Hopefully it will stay that way when I install springs. Need OTG rear spacers for better appearance.

Hey just purchased my rims today with the same rim specs as yours....18x7.5 (42 offset) with 215/35 tires. Just wondering if they rub? (without spacers) If so will I need spacers (front and back) to correct this problem? Currently my xb isn't lowered but I plan on lowering it in the future.




did you ever get a response to your questions?

i'm planning on buying some 18x7.5 +42 rims.... how did they work out for you...

i currently have 2" goldline with 17x7 and have no issues... you think i'll run into any if i goto the larger size? thanks for any help in advance.

They will fit up front but you may have some contact between the lip on the backside of the rim against the rear suspension cage.

I have 18 x 7.5 40mm offset, and before i put some OTG shims in i had litereally about a hair width of room between the backside lip and the cage.

Looking at 17x7.5 with a +45 offset. On an xA with a 2' drop, anyone know if this will rub?¿? I'm more concerned about the offset than anything. Any help would be great.
