Vezel Rims

[dnumde]

Any one have any idea what is the recommended rim spec for Vezel X?

I am looking at 18" rim that looks something like this.

TIA!

[Roberttan]

ideally is 7.5x18  offset 45

saw some put 8.0x18 offset 40 tire protrude out fender 

8.0x18 offset 50 will be

tire size for 18 : 235/45/18 will be nice

225/45/18 personally find it too low

18 x 7.5 or 18 x 8 offset 45 should be ok. use 225/45/18 tyres for speedometer accuracy

These tyres is suitable for vezel I think. The new Vezel RS is using 225/50/18 tyres. Most shops will recommend 225/45/18 as it is a common size

wow where you got the info so fast ( are these Honda Original tire specification?)

if is 225/50/18 (682.mm)the speedo meter will be out lots

But for tire size 225/50/18 I don't is nice on 8 inch width rim

Taken from vezel thread. I dunno, maybe the FL Vezel is tuned differently from the pre-FL ones.

According to the previous post, it states 225/50R18. Since you are going to upsize, why not go to 235/35R20?

 

Should look very nice!

The drive shaft and shocks of the X version of Vezel may potentially be build to a different specification versus the RS or even Z. Best to check and verify with a mechanic before going overboard on upsizing rims or tyres.

 

Normally its okay to upsize by 1 inch, anything more is usually not recommended.
