Ok I'm going to order my coilovers tonight from ken. Should i go 215/40/18 pirelli pzeros or go for some tire stretch. What would be a good cheap tire that stretches well. I would be getting my pzeros new for $400 mounted and balanced. So i don't want to go over that price if i go for stretched tires, under is better

$400 is not bad at all for a whole set. But, I haven't seen many people run that tire so I don't know how well they stretch. And go with 215/40, which is hardly a stretch anyway on a 8.5.
Your best bet is probably Falken FK452/ZIEX 512 or 912 and Hankook Ventus V12. And from what I've seen, General and Nexen stretch well too.
I use federal ss595 .. I high Recommend them. I got them for 85 each mounted and balanced. Drifters also use these and stretch them and drift on them .. So I'm sure you won't pop a bead or anything haha, not to mention they have great traction.

The 09+ tl wheels are 5x120. Acura is trying to compete with BMW and Benz by using the same bolt pattern. So its a higher aftermarket for luxury wheels.

TL wheels from 2nd and 3rd gen (the 5-spoke that you see so much on this forum) fit though.

Looking at getting Konig Feathers 17x7" +40mm offset with a 73.1 mm bore size. They're going to be wrapped in 215/45/17s. I'm looking on both fit and aesthetic opinions. Not going crazy, lowering car 2.5-3" and want some flushness. I figure they should fit fine but want to know about possible recommended spacers sizes and if the bore difference is too much. I already have 73.1 to 64.1 hubcentric rings picked out if I get these wheels. Here's a rough look of them on my would be black sedan.
Where I would get them: http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findWheelDetail.do?pc=75301&wd=17&rw=7
And where I got the stat info on them not on the other site: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/KNG-75301/

I sold my old rims they where chrome and ugly I know our beautiful 6thgens deserve more. So Im currenty droped 2.25 all around on springs that I bought from ebay (I know bad Decision) but It was before I joined the sight and learned alot more about being flush or semi flush. I dont plan on paying for coilovers and paying again for and istallation. So with that being said Im looking to buy some xxr's 522 but I havent decided on what size to get. Im debating to get either 18x9.5 or 18x8.5 i dont know what offset I would have to get to make the rims fit I will roll fenders if I have! Please guys help me out before I make another bad decision. Any suggestion as far as wheel size and offset will help. Thanks you and I apologize if I look stupid for asking I did do my homework at least and go through all 32 pages of post.
