I have a set of Acura RSX wheels from my old car. I left the aftermarkets on it when I got rid of it and have had the stocks in my garage for years. I was thinking of using these for the winter as they are smaller and winter tires would be a little cheaper. They use the same lug pattern as the RA, just wondering about fitment. Anyone have any clue if this will work? Dimensions are 16x6.5 +45 offset.

Yes they will work. Those are exact same specs as the factory 16's wheels:

Ok cool. Thanks for the reply. I might plasti-dip them and throw them on next winter.

Nevermind, won't fit. The center bore on the wheel is smaller then the hub.

The wheel is too small for the hub. RA hub is 67mm I believe, RSX wheel bore is only 64mm.

Anyone have experience in boring out a wheel hub? It's only 3mm shouldn't take too much to grind them a little right?

Ask a machine shop.


But, really, I would explore wheel spacers first.

Machine shop will def be able to enlarge the bore size.

Post some pictures after you install them. I have never seen them on a Ralliart.

What size wheel spacers would I need to clear the hub? Would I need spacers with studs or would I still have enough of the stock studs left after the spacer?

Decided to go a different route. Found a set of 16" lancer wheels with brand new all seasons for a really good price. They'll work for this year, maybe next year get a good set of winter tires.

You could probably find a set of steelies with winter tires for like $400 if you look around. Thats how I picked up mine and my gfs winter sets

I actually got an even better deal than that. Got a set of 16" Lancer wheels with brand new Goodyear Eagle Sports for $250.
