New wheels for the TSX - Honda Pilot

Luwin1026 · 10-08-2007, 11:07 AM

Before the Pilot came along, the daily driver was a 2005 Acura TSX 6-spd.

It did its job well, hauling bikes around -

Trooping through snow on our boarding adventures -

Now that it's been relegated back to my personal commuting car and having finished grad school earlier this year, I decided to upgrade the wheels/tires since it was almost due for new tires anyway. I have a few more things on order for it and that'll be it for this car.

In the meantime, the specs are:

19x8 SSR Comp-H
ET45
235/35/19 Nitto NT555

Thanks Boomer - I like the Nittos a lot for their price, performance, and durability. This is my 4th set of NT555's on three different cars, and haven't had any complaints yet. They perform quite well in the wet as well. For the price, the only other tire I really like is the Yoko ES100's but those get loud when worn - the Nittos actually stay pretty quiet. Great tire!

Those SSRs are real pretty, but got any non-angled pics of the TSX with the SSRs?

Sometime soon, once my front bumper is in and I'm less embarassed to show it in its exterior-unmodded phase, a full range of pics will be taken.
