1998 Acura RL Base Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1998 Acura RL Base bolts on with a 5x114.3 pattern. The stock wheel is 16x7 at 47 offset. You can step up to 17, 18, or 19-inch sizes—compatible widths range from 6.5 to 8 inches depending on diameter. Since this model runs square fitment front and rear, you have full flexibility across the size chart.
Only the 5x114.3 bolt pattern will fit your RL. The hub-centric bore measures 64.1mm; if your wheel's center bore exceeds this, you'll need hub-centric rings for a proper fit. Aggressive offsets or widths beyond what's listed risk rubbing the fender or suspension, so stick with the compatible sizes we've verified for your application.
Every wheel we show bolts straight on and ships free to the lower 48 states. Aodhan, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Enkei, Vors, Black Rhino, BBS, and Gram Lights all have fitments in stock for your RL right now.
