I'm planning on buying Acura TSX wheels for my LX, those are 17x7 ET55 225/50 R17 tires, stock civic 17s have ET45 offset, do I absolutely need to get 5mm spacer or 55 offset is fine? I do want more flush look, but this deal is just too good to pass.. any advice? Which spacers do you recommend?

A 5mm spacer will bring your offset down to a total of 50mm from 55mm. I would get a 20 or 25 mm spacer to make it flush.

Unless you have already purchased the wheel...consider to look for other wheel option/offset that give you the flush fitment than adding wheel spacer. Adding wheel spacer will increase the wheel upsrung weight unnecessarily.

Agreed. Pass on those wheels.
