TL Type S replicas
I installed a set of replica waffles on my CU2 over the weekend. Here's a pic.

These replicas are good quality, a good bit of members here including myself have bought them with no issues. I love mine, especially the darker color vs OEM ( not saying OEMs look bad, just not enough contrast on Charcoal cars )

Stock TSX wheels are cast. So are Enkei RPF1's and a lot of ADVAN models (kind of), as well as Work Emotions, and quite a few other reputable wheels.

Do you have the specs on the waffles? Easy to find the reps but hard to come by some OEM ones at a relatively competitive price for used em wheels.
