09 tsx 18" ebony alloy on an 06 cgp tsx??

I've been trying to find some nice dark rims to go with my tinted cgp tsx but i think these 18" ebony alloys would be the best. The rims are for the 09 tsx but i think they would look better on the 1st gen. Can anyone photoshop this or give their opinion?

This might work...

They probably look a little big.. took about 2 minutes, but you get the general idea... I think it looks good!

I can't imagine the handling would be compromised. People have done much more... uh... extreme mods as far as wheel/tire combos... if you were to go 19" or 20" I could see how issues would come up. If your tires go lower profile, of course you'll feel more road stuff, but other than that you should be good to go.

3k is ridiculous, but you should expect about that for a brand new dealer product. Maybe wait a few months or check out the second gen area for people getting rid of their 09 stock setups..

What's wrong with the gunmetal 18" A-specs? Made for this car? see Curry Acura.
