ACURA TSX

Builds
1

well im looking to do a few mods to the tsx but just figured i would get some opinions on here.
prlly going to do factory body kit, wheels and springs or coils not sure which yet. i dont really know about coils because i dont want to ruin the ride of the car but im sure the big wheels will if the suspension dosent.

first question for everyone is in regards to the tsx and its size are 20" wheels too big for it? it has a really high rear quarter to window that makes it look like they would fit well, i have seen 19’s look small on these cars just not sure yet.

im going for the oem+ look

here is the current look of the car ( all stock )

these are the wheels i was thinking of running, with adapters and in 20" x 9
because they have a similar shape to the stock 17" wheels that came with the car.

Havent seen one in person with 20’s but in the pics the 20’s look ridiculous. 19’s look much better.

4

Honestly never a fan of over 18" on Oem+ but thats me lol. The pic of the dark 19" I really like actually. 20" is too big for anything. Ever.

5

I hated 20s till I saw the S8. I think the right 20s would set it off

6

WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW That fucking first white car. WOW. Unreal.

7

Damn, maybe I should start looking into tsx’s again…

8

The charcoal 19s

9

20’s would look good but has to be the right wheel

10

if you want OEM+ here are the RDX A-spec 19" rims. They can be had for $600 new on ebay right now.

i think the white 19s look great on it imo

12

start by getting rid of the stock grille. No idea what acura’s design department was thinking when they came up with that. Shit belongs on an Aztek.

13

i actually dont mind the stock grill, i guess it takes getting used to.

i have plans for a tune to up the gas mileage even more and give the car a bit more pep and the more and more i look at 20" wheels on this car the more i feel certain that they fit great.

if you get 20’s say goodbye to your decent gas mileage.

16

17

The wheels you picked would look good Damir. Deff get them

18

wheels are ordered, 9 x 20" all four corners et 55? i think whatever oem Porsche cayenne wheels are

now i need spacers/adapters ( i think it should be final et of 35? for an agressive look ) stock is et 40

tires ( 225/35/20 ) prlly ? maybe ( 215/40/20 ) stance gurus i need help on that

camber arms ( dont want camber but i do want it within stock specs )

springs or coilovers

profit?

19

you will probably need your fenders pulled for that.

20
