I aint saying she a gold digga...

Got my wheels put on. OZ ultraleggera in Gold. CF center cap, black lugs. 17x8 +48...front wheel is hella flush, but my wheels is slightly turned in the pics, didnt feel like going inside to get my keys, lol. Got them for an unbelieveable price.
Tein Basics are in the mail as we speak so I will be getting those installed within the next few weeks.
Also I will be blacking out the chrome trim, since I feel it clashes with the gold. And getting the front windows tinted as well. Enjoy.

Never been a fan of gold rims on a black car, but you're right the chrome trim clashes with the gold. Blacking that out will make the car look better

Needs black window trim, drop, kit, and Mugen grill. The chrome on the grill has to go as well as the window trim.

It will look a lot better once you lower it and blackout the chrome.

I dont think it looks THAT bad. I know its not lowered yet, and I said that in my first post. I agree it doesnt look great without a drop. I wanted to get the wheels on though, and I like how it looks. Once the chrome trim is blacked out, it will look much better.
And yea, that thing is fawkin dirty.
Negative on the bronze, to me it looks dirty.

it'll look a lot better once it is lowered with the basics...personally, i would've saved up for some 18s. 17" aftermarket wheels look so small for some reason.

Sorry man, Honestly not feeling it. To tell you the truth I think If I were you I would have just put on the rims you were selling on the black market instead. plus, 17's look small for our car I think, But then again your car isn't lowered yet so I guess we'll wait and see

thanks for the positivity....i was second guessing the wheels while reading some posts, then i looked outside, and realized I really like the wheels. My first choice was always gold as soon as I got the car. This is only the beginning. Everyones gota start somewhere, right? lol

You can get gold "Acura", "TSX" and the "A" badges front and back from Acura.

If you're gonna black out the chrome and leave badges, switch to gold badges.
Make it all flow better...

Its your car, do what makes you happy. You won't/shouldn't strive to please everyone on here. After all, some of these folks like the stock 06-08 rims.

are you running the stock tires on your wheels? That's probably why it looks beefy...

your car will look good once you get those teins and black window trim

I would have gone with 18's or 19's, maybe even the Privet Netz that you are trying to sell instead. Post pics after you get it dropped, blacked out, etc!

if 17x8 +48 is hella flush I wonder what I would call my 18x9 +40's... I like the gold on black but rims are way too small and the tire is too big IMO...

** sorry just reread it ur fronts flush**

That gold is closer to bronze though man. But nobody's hating on your whip. I've always loved the SA70, in any color, on a TSX.

I think it looks good, once you've lowered the car it'll do you justice. Can I ask why didn't you go with 18"s, thats what I would have gone with.

At first I wanted to go with 18s which I had (privat netz)...I didnt think I was going to lower it til next summer, or def not this summer...and I needed tires on my stockies so I got toyo proxes4 which are incredible tires so I just bought 17s to put on the brand new tires..I agree the 17s are small, but dam are they light

Just look under my sig.

These are way cheaper than Volk ce28s... Tire rack carries WedsSports so you should definitely check it out. I believe they go for around $350 per wheel, which is bad at all.

I heard that they discountinue bronze, but not 100% sure so you should call them and find out.
