Will trade or sell!
I'm looking for something 17x8 +35 or more aggressive. Bolt pattern must be 5x114.3. I will add cash on top if necessary.

Tires on the rims are stock Michelin Pilots up front and Falken 912 in the back with about 60% each. This is how I bought. There were curb marks from the previous owner which I repaired.

Painted these rims this summer and did it properly.
1) Cleaned every inch of the rims
1) Sanded with 320 grit
2) Wet sanded with 400 grit
3) Repaired curb marks with Bondo
4) Sanded again
5) Cleaned
6) Laid proper coats of primer
7) Coats of Duplicolor Graphite Wheel Paint
9) Coats of Duplicolor Wheel Clear Coat
10) Wet sanded with 1000 grit

So basically I didn't skip any steps and did this as best as I could.

Also I have the Acura center caps but they are still silver.

They look a little too big for the coupe imo. Plus they'll raise my car!:P

18 inch rims/tires don't raise your car if you get the correct tire size (225/40/18 for your car)... if you put the correct tire size on your 18inch it will be exact the same size as your 17 inch 215/45/17.

I have 18 inch 225/40/18 and it is exactly the same circumference as my 16 inch stock rims on my RSX.

Oh yeah I totally forgot about the profile size. I had 195/55/15 before and these are a little bigger so my car did raise a little when I put them on. But the 18's are still a little too big imo.

Thanks for the interest but right now I'm only looking for trades because I haven't really seen any other sets that have caught my eye.
