Milan, why is it that they don't stick out past the fenders in the front? I have the TL 17x8's and my wheels are out past my fenders...I'll take a pic tomorrow cause it's driving me crazy!

Looks vicious Milan. I recently saw another silver sedan on RDX wheels on either v6p or drive accord like a week or two ago. Was that yours?
Not sure, I posted a few different pictures with these wheels on other boards. Plus people have been e-mailing and sending me PM's on the other forums about getting these wheels. Do you have a linky?

You climbed up on the roof of your garage LOL. Looking good man!
Sure did lol! Looking good thanks to you and your patented fender rolling technique!
Just looked and it was v6p. You privileged them almost a month before your true home!!!! LOL

Could be that the tire bulges out more on a 17" wheel.

Not at all. I posted picture on this forum when I first got these wheels mounted. You must have missed it.

It could have something to do with the tire size also. From what I recall the RDX wheels are 19"x8" +45mm. I believe Milan is also running 225/40/19 tires. We'll ignore the fact that he's running 15mm in the rear since you're talking about his front wheels. Now, as far as the TL wheels, they are 17"x8" +45mm, so with all things being equal, the wheels will be sitting in the same position in the front fenders. The difference comes with the tires. I'm not sure if you have 235/45/17's or 245/45/17's, but that could be the reason why your wheels aren't as flush in the front. The other reason could be that the different tires are also making the difference. I have run both sizes on my TL wheels and can tell you from experience that the 3 sets of tires I've had on my TL's all fit different because they were shaped differently.
