Anyone got these rims yet?

Okay...I may settle for this. I don't really want flashy rims....and these are 17s. My question is, can I take off the center cap and insert the Acura ones instead? I've tried writing to their customer service email addy and they replied to call instead......

Have you guys purchased rims with center caps and swapped them with your acura ones?



What do you guys think of these?

I think those will look nice.

those center caps aren't bad as it is, so if the acura ones don't fit. Well, who cares.

What size tires you thinking about getting also?

i have Hankook Ventus HR-II in 225/45/17 and i love em. For daily driving, they're more than enough for me.

I would definatly consider those... to bad you chose them before me or i'd put them on my list... Do they come in a 4 lug??? Universal kinda... is... eh... but thats just my opinion... the rim itself... the design looks cool though... I like...

About the center cap thing... ... it can probably be changed for the Acura center caps but you would have to see if they fit...

Again... If you like them... get them... Maybe in 18's instead of 17's???

spooky, these are 4 lugs and they should fit our car according to the wheelmax website.


And Cambo...are these the tires you are talking about?
http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=1989
$100 per tire

I chose 17's because I don't want to damage the wheels if I hit curbs or potholes. And 17's look fine too me....Actually, Cambo, can you post a pic of your car with the 17s?

These are the tires i have. $76 per tire plus free shipping.

Discount tire also has the K104 (you posted the K104) for $91 per tire plus free shipping.

I like the 17s on the TL, but sometimes wish i went with a smaller profile tire like a 225/35/17 or something, but that would have raised the price of tires about $50 per tire. With a 225 tire, the rubber is just shy of sticking out the wheel wells. I don't rub at all. I'm also lowered on Eibach Prokits and SPC camber kit all around.

Its currently dark outside right now, but i'll snap some shots tommorow for ya. She's a bit dirty, but i'm at college and the sororities aren't washing cars yet.
