Dude let me know if this is possible cause I would like to do it as well and then get a set of those stock TL-S wheel cause I think they look hot as hell on our TL's. I recall seeing someone from this board had it on their 3.2 and it was sweet.

The guy at my local performace shop said it really isn't safe to put those adapters on your car. I'm not trying to burst anyones bubble, but he said they usually put them on piece of sh!t trucks...I have no Idea why, but thats what he said, and this dude knows what he is talking about...wouldn't bullsh!t me.

He doesn't want to put an adapter over his spindle, he wants to swap the whole thing with an OEM 3.2 spindle. I don't see any danger in that as long as it mounts on correctly.

Oh, yeah that would work. My bad...I thought you meant an adapter. Do you think Acura would have them, or the dealer be able to get it? I don't really understand the difference anyway. Do they just not make good lookin 4 lug wheels. Someone help me out, please.
