not a 100% sure about the offset but,the bolt pattern should be the same if you have the V6 with 5-lug.

I know the previous TL rims fit, TSX rims, and the new Accord rims will all fit.

The offsets of the new TL are lower than the 2003 and previous TL's. They wont sit as flush as the last gens would, and could possibley rub as well if dropped.

there is a 04 sedan locally with new TL wheels on it... looks very nice! So if the new accord rims will fit a 6th gen V6, I would say the TL wheels will work just fine.

I'll try to get some pics of the car the next time I see it...

i got 04' TL rims 2 months ago. they stuck out a bit even without the tires on. they're wide....i'm not sure if the tires will rub coupes' suspension or not
i hope these pics would help.

If you want to avoid rubbing, avoid 38 offset. For a 7-7.7" wide wheel, look for something at least 42. 45 is better, and 48 would be great imo. (I have 45 with a 18x7.5)

I'm looking at shortening the control arms,relocating the struts and moving the rear wheels in and enlarging the inner wheel houses(mini tub) to fit some 19X9.5 in the rear. I'm looking to get the hp racing evo and the 19x9.5 have a +38 offset. I'm just trying to figure out how much I'll need to bring the rear wheel in so it won't rub. with the mini-tub i'll be able drive with the rear wheels tucked. i hate widebody kits,they look like crap. I wanna keep the body stock,just modify the suspension..
