Default Acura RL wheels?

I have a 2001 accord LX V6? I wanted to buy a set of 2006 Acura RL wheels with 245/50/17. I wanted to know if any one has done this or know if they with fit?

I'm not 100% sure on the size, you can use a tire size calculator (top post in wheels/tires section) and see what the speed/size difference is... the bolt pattern should be the same but I'd double check it to make sure... So: It should work but double check it for yourself online, www.1010tires.com has calculators and such...

I'm pretty certain your bolt pattern is 5 x 114.3 and the Acura RL bolt pattern is 5 x 120, so doubt that they will fit.

You got me curious... and vintageant is pretty much right (minus what I would assume is a small typo) but you have a 4 x 114.3 pattern and the RL is 5 x 120 so, no dice.... I was not aware that acura switched to a 5 lug rim...

No, not a typo. My 2003 is 5 x 114.3, so I assumed 2001 was the same. I didn't realize that 2001's were 4 bolt. Apologies for misdirection!

Thank you all for your help. I got so concerned with the tire size I missed the fact that the RL was not the same as the TL or the Accord.

Hi Guys***
Here is an up date for you all on the 2006 Acura RL's wheel size.
The stock wheels on this car are 17"x8" with a bolt pattern of
5 lugs on 115mm and by the way the OEM wheels run as high as
$550.00 each and their made by Asahi Mfg company who makes custom wheels also..
