1998 Acura CL Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1998 Acura CL Base requires a 4x114.3 bolt pattern. The factory wheel is 16x6 with a 40mm offset. You can upgrade through 16x6.5, 16x7, 17x6.5, 17x7, 17x7.5, 18x7, 18x7.5, 19x7.5, or 20x7.5—all bolt on directly without staggering concerns.
Keep in mind that only 4x114.3 wheels will fit your CL. Your hub's center bore measures 64.1mm; if you choose a wheel with a larger bore, use hub-centric rings to ensure proper fitment. Pushing too wide or running excessively aggressive offsets can cause rubbing against fenders or suspension components, so stay within tested sizes.
Every wheel we list for your vehicle is verified to fit and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. We stock Work Wheels, Enkei, SSR Wheels, and Rotiform options that are ready to bolt on today.
