OEM wheel and tire fitment specs for the 2007 Acura TL, including bolt pattern (PCD), center bore diameter, thread size, rim diameter, rim width, wheel offset, and backspacing.
2007 Acura TL Fitment Specs
Baseline mounting dimensions used for interchange decisions.
Multiple OEM configurations exist for this vehicle. Fitment can vary by trim, brakes, and factory wheel package – confirm your exact setup before buying.
Wheels That Interchange With a 2007 Acura TL
Results are evaluated from bolt pattern, center bore direction, OEM width/offset envelope, and lug hardware – not bolt pattern alone.
A normal wheel spacer does not change bolt pattern. Hub rings cannot enlarge a wheel bore that is smaller than the hub. Brake clearance and tire package fitment still require vehicle-specific checks when not confirmed in the dataset.
2007 Acura TL Wheel Fitment Guide
You want wheels that fit your 2007 Acura TL without rubbing, vibration, or safety risks. The challenge is that wheel and tire specs can vary by trim, and aftermarket options add trade-offs. This page shows the known OEM specs for the 2007 TL, then walks you through a practical validation flow using the wheelinterchange.com calculator and a safe test-fit process.

Assumption note: The wheel size listed above and the tire size shown may reflect different factory packages or trims. If your door placard lists a different tire size, use your placard as the baseline. When values differ, confirm with the on-page calculator and OEM sources before buying wheels or tires.
1. Goal
Select wheels and tires for a 2007 Acura TL that fit safely under your car, clear brakes and suspension, and keep handling and speedometer behavior within acceptable limits. We will identify constraints, evaluate trade-offs, and validate fitment using the wheelinterchange.com calculator and a controlled test-fit.
2. Prerequisites
Your door placard data: tire size and cold pressure. Found on the driver door jamb.
Access to the wheelinterchange.com calculator on this page.
OEM service information for torque specs and procedures. If unknown, consult the owner’s manual or dealer.
3. Step by step
Step 1: Confirm your baseline
Read your door placard tire size. This is your vehicle’s OE reference.
Compare to the known specs above. If the listed 18x8 ET45 does not match your car, note your actual size. Tire size 235/45R17 may indicate a different trim or package.
Step 2: Set up the calculator
In “Installed on (your vehicle)”, select 2007 Acura TL.
Enter your actual baseline from the door placard and current wheels. If you are unsure, you may start with the known data shown above, but confirm against your car before purchase.
Use “Custom wheel size” to enter candidate rim diameter, width, and offset. Use “Custom tire size” to enter the tire you plan to run. Changing rim diameter will update tire diameter in the comparison.
Step 3: Evaluate clearance and position
Offset trade-off: Lower ET moves the wheel outward, higher ET pulls it inward. This changes fender “poke” and inner clearance to strut and knuckle.
Width trade-off: Wider rims push both inward and outward by half the added width. Check both sides for clearance.
Use the calculator deltas for inner clearance and outer position. Aim to preserve safe inner clearance to suspension and brake lines while keeping outer poke within the fender.
Step 4: Keep overall diameter sensible
Large tire diameter changes affect speedometer, gearing, and ABS behavior. A small change is recommended for daily duty.
If you change rim diameter, adjust tire aspect ratio and width to keep overall tire diameter close to your baseline.
Step 5: Match hub and hardware
Center bore on the hub is 64.1 mm. A wheel with a smaller bore will not seat. A larger bore needs hub-centric rings to be centered and smooth.
Thread size is M12 x 1.5. Use lug nuts that match both thread and seat profile of the wheel. Conical seats are common on aftermarket wheels, but confirm your wheel’s seat type.
Step 6: Backspacing and brake clearance
Known backspacing is 5.77 in for the listed 18x8 ET45. If you change width or offset, the new backspacing changes. More backspacing reduces inner clearance to suspension and brakes.
If your chosen wheel design has thick spokes, test for caliper clearance. Some styles clear worse than the numbers suggest.
Step 7: Controlled test-fit
Mount one front and one rear wheel without center caps. Hand start all lug nuts to ensure threads are correct.
Lower the car to partial weight and turn lock-to-lock. Check inner liner, fender lip, and brake hose clearance.
