If you own a 2024-2026 Acura Integra, you already know the struggle: finding a wheel that clears the factory brakes, fills the fenders properly, and doesn’t require spacers or hub rings. The new Integra (DE4/DE5 chassis) has quickly become one of the most exciting platforms in the sport compact scene, blending Honda reliability with premium Acura refinement.
The Vicrez V28ZR Matte Black Wheel in 18×9.5 with a 35mm offset solves all of that – delivering an aggressive, flush stance that transforms both the look and handling of your Integra, whether you drive a Base, A-Spec, or Type-S model.

Why 18×9.5 +35mm is the Sweet Spot for Your Integra
The factory wheels on a 2024 Acura Integra Base or A-Spec are typically 17×7 inches with a +45mm offset, or 18×8 inches with a +50mm offset, wearing 215/50R17 or 235/40R18 tires respectively. For the Type-S, the factory setup jumps to 19×9.5 inches with a +60mm offset and 265/30R19 tires. While the Type-S wheels are decently sized, there’s still plenty of room for improvement across the entire Integra lineup.
After extensive research on the DE4/DE5 platforms, 18×9.5 inches has emerged as the go‑to wheel size for Integra owners who want serious presence without sacrificing daily drivability. At +35mm offset, the Vicrez V28ZR sits right in the aggressive end of the recommended offset range (+30 to +40) for this chassis. This pushes the wheel outward for that perfect flush fitment without poking past the fender.
This setup is widely considered the sweet spot for enthusiasts who want a wider track width, improved cornering stability, and the ability to run significantly more rubber than stock – all without the need for spacers or fender rolling on most setups.

The Vicrez V28ZR is crafted from superior‑grade aluminum 6061 T6 material using high‑quality cast construction. This manufacturing process delivers a durable, lightweight wheel that balances strength and affordability – perfect for daily‑driven Integras that see everything from canyon carving to highway commutes. The matte black finish is both stealthy and easy to maintain – no glossy fingerprints, no chrome glare, just a clean, menacing look that complements any Integra paint color.
Important Fitment Note for Integra Type-S Owners
The Acura Integra Type-S (DE5) comes with a different bolt pattern than the Base and A‑Spec models. The Type-S uses a 5×120 bolt pattern, while the Base and A‑Spec models use 5×114.3 – the same pattern as the Vicrez V28ZR.
This wheel is designed for Base and A‑Spec Integra models (2024-2026) with the 5×114.3 bolt pattern. Type-S owners will need wheels with a 5×120 pattern, though the 18×9.5 +35 size range remains an excellent fitment target for that platform as well.
Recommended Tire Sizes for Integra
| Driving Style | Tire Size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Daily / Stock Height | 255/35R18 | Comfortable, no rubbing, mild stretch |
| Performance / Lowered | 265/35R18 | Best grip, slightly firmer ride |
| Aggressive Square Setup | 255/35R18 all around | Balanced handling, no rubbing |
| Winter / Comfort | 245/40R18 | Softer ride, good snow clearance |
The most popular upgrade for 5th‑gen Integra with 18×9.5 wheels is 255/35R18 or 265/35R18. With the correct offset (+35 to +40), you can easily fit these tire sizes without worrying about rubbing the suspension or fenders.
Factory tires on 18‑inch wheels are 235/40 – upgrading to 255/35 or 265/35 provides significantly more grip and a much more aggressive stance. For those who want a bit more stretch or a milder setup, 245/40R18 works well. Some advanced users even go up to 275/35R18 or 285/35R18, though this may require additional negative camber or minor fender work.
All of these tire sizes pair perfectly with Vicrez VCORSA all‑season tires for year‑round confidence, or a dedicated summer tire like the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S for maximum grip.
Installation Tips for Integra Owners
- Hub‑centric rings are required – The V28ZR has a 72.6mm center bore, while your Integra has a 64.1mm hub bore. Hub‑centric rings eliminate vibration and ensure a perfect fit. Your Integra’s hub is 64.1mm, so you’ll need 72.6‑to‑64.1mm rings.
- Lug nuts – Use M12x1.5 acorn or conical seat lug nuts. Stock lugs will work, but aftermarket black lugs look much better against the matte black finish.
- Torque spec – 80 lb‑ft (108 Nm). Re‑torque after 50 miles of driving.
- No spacers needed – The +35mm offset clears both Base and A‑Spec chassis without rubbing on the strut or fender on most setups. Factory offset is around +45 to +50, so the V28ZR pushes the wheels outward by roughly 10‑15mm – a noticeable improvement in stance.
- TPMS compatibility – The V28ZR is TPMS compatible. If you purchase wheels and tires as a package from Vicrez, TPMS sensors are installed at no additional charge.
- Suspension considerations – Most owners running 18×9.5 +35 with 255/35 or 265/35 tires report zero rubbing on stock suspension. If you’re lowered on coilovers or springs, minimal camber adjustment may be needed for optimal clearance, though many remain rub‑free even after lowering.
