235/50/17 tire starts from $80.50. But I would recommend Hankook Ventus V4 es H105 235/50 R17 96W at $92.50 per tire.

Basically, any tire which has the diameter and width less than OEM is working on the car but you will have some issues. The odometer reading will be differ and the transmission gear ratio will be negatively affected. I prefer the overall diameter of the tire somewhat (within 1%) bigger than OEM with bigger rims (19 or 20 inch) for looks.

Yes thank you for your website, but I want to stick with wheelmax.com because they give me free shipping lol. I want to buy the wheel and tire at the same place so they can mount the tire on the wheel. And I don't have to go out to a tire shop and let them mount it on, like $35 for each wheel. Yea, I'm cheap.

Anyway thx for your help, BTW 97 RLer I notice you're at Acura-world.com too right?

So was reading here about all the tire sizes and such, and was wondering how 215/50/17 would work? asking because I'm going with the 02-03 TL typeS rims and the stock tire on it is 215/50/17. i think 55 would rub since the stock wheels\tires rub with a (slightly heavy) passenger. what do you all think?

also as future reference, would the TSX coilovers provide a better ride than the accord ones?

edit- on a 98RL
