Question Acura RSX rims

My friend is selling 02 Acura RSX rims and I was wondering if they would fit my Forte Sedan. I know they're the same bolt pattern but one of my other friends is saying that ti might not fit. I'm dumb as a rock when it comes to cars so any help is appreciated.


heres a pic of some 02 rsx rims.

Yea it should fit. I just did a quick look and it looks like all older (idk about newer) Acura's have a bolt pattern the same as our forte's. That should be good enough to have them fit. Just take off one of your wheels and try it

So...it won't fit? He's coming by my house this weekend and I don't want him to bring it if it doesn't fit.

You'll need to have them bore out to 67.1mm to fit them....... so NO! they won't fit as is.

As Matemorh said, the only way these wheels will fit is if they are bored out. Not exactly a cheap option. They won't work as-is. Spacers are for reducing center bore diameter.

Nope won't fit. Did you give any thought to the fact that they have the Acura branding on them? When I saw the picture the first thing I noticed was that. I think most people would be scratching their head, asking themselves the same question. Not knocking your idea, just wondered if you thought about it.

Yep! You could put wheel spacer thick enought to clear the hub!!! Being lug centric isn't perfect but adding spacers to it become a safety gamble if you ask me!!
