Selected size will be 17" (there's one wheel in here that didn't come in 17" so the 18" is shown - I may be OK with that). I'm sure there are a ton of other options out there but I wanted to see them on the car. If anyone knows of other websites that will do that, let me know. Tire Rack doesn't have my car in their interactive. The ones below are from discounttiredirect.com. Rimstop.com also had an interactive, I just didn't see anything there I liked.

Rim color variations not withstanding because I'm not sure how accurate those are. I'm not even sure of the quality of these makes right now but it's not like this is a track car, so.... I'm just looking for opinions on the rim style right now. I'd like to get the ProKit and hopefully I can look like these pics show. Thx!

I like the Fondmetal but I'm afraid it looks too Audi (and my wife has an A4, so I want to make sure I look different )

IMO, Saturn, Fondimental, and Apex are all pretty damn nice.

IMO, Konig Tantrum or Traffic... Most likely the Konig Tantrum because they have a similarity to the stock premium alloys on the TL, minus 5 spokes/bars on the wheel...

if those were my choices i'd get the Konig Tantrum... again, IMO...

Here is something i've been looking at and saving for slowly... a bit out of my budget at the moment but i can wait... i have to get my car back on track and working again... ... ...

In the next year or so... 18x7.5 Gianelle 10 Flush Chrome...

Gonna have fun trying to make those fit man!! Not enough offset!! Flush deep dish rims like that just won't work on our cars.

I actually did a query/search on their website by putting what kind of car... Acura TL 95-98... etc... well those are one of the choices... i liked them so when i get the cash... i was thinking of getting them, or something similar... about the offset... i know our cars can do a 40 to 42 right... or something like that... again ... still if not those... it'll have to be something similar... Below is the site where i got the query from... most likely its one of the last pages...

http://www.custom-wheels-car-rims.com/

When you search for the vehicle do the following search...

1. Acura
2. 1998
3. TL (only TL... there is an option for the 3.2...)
4. 18 wheel size
5. Chrome for wheel finish
Then go to page 14 to see the Gianelle Rims 10-Flush... Either thier search thing is in-acurate or they just put those rims there by mistake...
