Default Acura Tl rims

I have a 2003 accord LX that has 15" steel rims. I recently bought some 16" rims that came off of a Acura I'm guessing it was a TL so I'm going from a 55 aspect to a 60 aspect tire does anyone think there could be issues with my plan? I will probably need different lugs I'm thinking. what about my accord does it have tpms system and do most come stock with tpms ?

Can anybody identify these?

Hmmm, I do not recognize those as being from a TL; certainly not a 3G TL, and probably not any of the 2G models either. Regarding TPMS, that started on the 2006 and later TLs, I rather doubt your 2003 Accord has that feature. If those rims are in fact from a 4G TL, I rather doubt they'll mount up to your car as I believe the 4G models have a different bolt pattern.

They do bolt on I've had them on. The guy I got them from said he had them on a civic so maybe they are from a civic but the center caps are acura. Tpms good one less thing to deal with.

Then I'm guessing they are either from an older TL, or more likely, a TSX.

Thanks a Google search shows a aftermarket wheel like these for a civic. Well I only paid 80 for all 4 so guess I will try them on my accord anyway. I like the look better than hubcap type. Thx again

Update, I've been reviewing Acura rims for all of their various models over the years; so far at least, I am unable to see any models which came from the factory with those wheels. Said another way, someone may have added Acura logo hubs, but they may well not be Acura rims.

One of my daughters had a 2007 Civic EX coupe. Those were the stock rims. Since Acura is part of Honda, I'm not surprised that the Acura center caps would fit into Civic rims.

Those rims are narrower than what would have been stock for an Accord. Well, I actually looked it up & the 2003 Accord EX has the same width wheels. They'll bolt up, but maybe they're too narrow for the tires you want?? (you only say the aspect ratio, not the tire size)

I also don't know about the load rating of those rims for the heavier Accord.

AND...
We also used to have a 2003 Accord LX sedan (with steel rims) and it did NOT have TPMS.

Yeah they are from 2006 to 2011 civic. after searching for an hour. do you have any idea on lug nut size I should get ? I mean the lug stud depth should be the same on civic vs accord right?

Are you changing the hub or something you should be using the lug nuts that is already on the car
