[Acura604]

hey guys.. wanting to get a winter tire package for my 08 TL base.

I will drop a size to 16" and goin with General Altimax Arctics at 205/60/16.

question... cdn tire has 16" steelies for $60 a piece... bolt pattern of 5x4.5 which is same as 5x114.3. has anyone gotten a set of these and did they fit your TL?

thx.

Nice winter setup.

Word of caution though, OEM Honda nuts are ball seat, steelies are usually taper seat.

Should really get the proper seating nuts to hold on those wheels.

Did you just get a pair or a set?

Getting a set is a better idea, because you don't want your tail to throw out when you brake.. (then you will be at fault).. vs getting stuck.
