2005 TL Wheels ripe for the picking

I stopped by my dealership yesterday and they had all the 2005 TL wheels on display. The black chrome A-Specs are incredibly gorgeous, and the sparkle colored ones are ok. The new 17" optional ones look like a good possibility for TSXs as well.







from this post on ATL

the Chrome is hard to see in those pics, these are better

I wonder what their weight is compared to TSX wheels? If they are heavy the TL wouldn't care since the it has gobs of torque, but that's not the case with the TSX.

extremely heavy, I think the A-Spec 18" are 25lb or more.

When I weighted my 2004 TL wheels, they are only slightly heavier than the TSX stock wheels (within 2 lbs).

right, which makes sense that the 18" are even more

I work at an Acura dealership and we put the black chrome ones on a black 2005 RL and they look SICK!!!! Now I am starting to think about gettin some! But the word chrome adds like another 800 onto the price, even w/ employee discount. ACK!
