Kinda makes the TSX look like an Audi. Looks pretty sweet though.

They look kinda like the TL rims, so I'd say they make the TSX look more like the TL.

they are 18 * 7, ya...i want to lower the car too, but bodykits first, hopefully i can get my bodykits installed by the end of this week...

dont know which suspension system to get yet...

by the way, wut do you guys think about the "TEIN Type-Flex coilover system", does TEIN make good suspension systems? also, wut other reasons make people go for coilover except they are lengh-adjustable?...any comments will b appreciated

Nice rims! I know a lot of people put those on the Audi A4's.

Looks real good on the TSX....with the drop it will look incredible!

Those rims are growing on me Dani. Did you notice any negative side effects with regards to the added weight? I think they're about 4lbs heavier than stock.

honestly, for me...the added weight is not noticeable at all!

but ya, currently i got the Continental Extreme Contact tires, and they add up to 52 lbs per corner (tire + rim), which is 5 lbs more compares to the stock i believe

has been looking thru tons of rims before i made my choice, but just didnt like the look of those light rims out there...some of them are nice, but way to expensive
