Tires

Does anyone know if the. Rims from an Acura TL 2004 will fit on the. SVX?
205-60-16 tires... Wife totaled the TL 3 weeks ago and I have a brand new set of Blizak tires mounted on rims.
If not will the tires go on my stock rims. And fit. Looks like they will be about 2" bigger in Dia.

Since the total diameter is screwed up it will affect the speedo and odo.

You can probably "wheel diameter calculator" or something.. or maybe it's diafeet in US

Re: Tires

For the winter it won't mater . Was more concerned with bolt pattern and them not rubbing on things. I drive about 500 to 700 miles during the winter I have the GPS FOR SPEED ..I will be driving farther than the car will be recording .. That's a good thing.

Re: Tires

They are only 3.24% larger in size, 3% being the recommended limit. Under .8" difference in diameter. 60mph will show as 58mph on the speedo.

The rims should fit as well. They are listed as 114.3 with a high offset which is what you need.

You'll just need hubcentric rings because the TL rims have a larger centre bore.

Re: Tires

Yep. Acura/Honda wheels typically fit well enough.
