Trust us kid, in a couple of years you'll grow out of the chrome rims looks cool phase. Don't make a mistake now you'll regret later, thinking i should've listen to those guys on Azine. Have you thought of Gold? those looks hot with pwp or bronze. If you think those colors are ricey then get Silver or polished silver you can get away with those since those are better than stock look and can pretty much fit any car color.

tdottsx, did you read my previous post?
I have stated ALL reasons why the chrome rims does not looks good (as you thought) on TSX. Which have already answer your question, the deep dish look.
The TSX will NOT fit with a true deep dish because we can't or we shouldn't do stagger setup, we have high offset etc. The chrome rim might looks good when it put beside your car, but when you put it on, it might not fit. By the time you get the correct size, it will looks way different.
If you like it. Do it. And don't cry about wasting your $1900 on such a "standout" rim afterwards.

IMO - I think it overpowers the car and does not match the overall style of the TSX. It's a sporty-looking car, and those are heavy-looking and overdone to me. For that kind of money, talke a long look around because you have a ton of choices.

I agree you want rims that compliment the overall styling of the TSX, because its one gorgeous looking vehicle, you really don’t want to distract people from it. Ugly rims will attract attention but in the bad way, “hey dude, look at those ugly wheels on that TSX”
I think it looks phenomenal. Take note, "tdottsx"

^^^ Those aren't too shabby but I prefer staying at 17" on the TSX. The bigger wheels just don't flow with the car's lines to my eye.
And those mud flaps look like ass.
