I've always liked those TL A-Spec wheels since I first clapped eyes on them.
I knew they'd work well on the TSX.

i've been on the fence regarding the look of the 06 oem kit, but it definitely looks hot here.

the tl rims look good also, i think it matches perfectly. i am curious to know if those are 17"s or 18"s...

overall, sweet ride!

Looks great, sometimes I wish I would have gone with ABP.

How much of a difference can you feel with the new rotors?

DARN YOU!!.....I kept telling myself i didn't need to spend the money on the body kit for the 06 causes it flares out a little bit, but i think you just sold me on really wanting to get it!

Your car looks nice man, i really do like those wheels too! what suspension are you running with that?

Man this is one of the cleanest TSXs I've seen. You got all the right mods man. This is what the TSX should have looked like stock....

I was thinking about those wheels for my 06 NBP. Those are the gunmetal ones right? I love the bodykit too! Nice choice on the color, I had an 04 ABP.
