The Dodge Challenger wheels I bought (18x7 24mm offset) rub the caliper. What are my options?
If I bought 04 Acura TL wheels (17x8 114.3 45mm offset) they should work correct?

That's what I was thinking but if it was rubbing by a quarter inch like I was told, I would need a 10mm spacer? and then my wheels would poke farther.. wondering if that would contribute to more rub since the wheels are already +24mm. The other option i assume is to grind some of the caliper.
I think you need wheels with at least a +35 offset. FWD cars tend to have a higher offset then a RWD car. The Acura wheels should fit better.

Did you read the link I posted? also, "spoke design" (clearance) is part of the "offset".
I think it'll be a trial and error thing with the challenger wheels. As far as the acura wheels, i don't have to worry about the centerbore? bc i believe nissan wheels have issues with that.
Looks like Honda/Acura has a 64.1mm center bore.
Nissans, such as the 350Z look to have a 66.1mm center bore.
Grand Prix has a 70.3mm center bore so fitment will be an issue there.
i used this site to find wheels that would fit. enter the cars wheels yo ulike and it shows the lug pattern and bore size for the hub. we need a 70.3

Just remember if using that site that Scotty posted that we can also use 5 x 114.3, but I assume you know that since you are talking about the TL wheels.
