G-Games 77 Wolf's ordered. Better pic's, Pg. 3
I've got the G-Games 77 Wolf's 18x7.7" +42mm offset on order, should get them in a few days:
I've seen the other TSX's with these at the +42mm offset. Looks very flush with the fender wall. The guy at America's Tires though I was nuts since the suggested was +50mm offset. I got kinda worried myself, but looking at the pics in the wheel gallery, I dont think I can go wrong.
And besides, if im going to lower, I want to get it futher out to prevent rubbing right?

lol...I'll see if they can do that at the shop before they put the tires on. Or it might actually be on the box.
I'll take some pics as soon as they are on. The car wont be lowered however, so its probably going to look a little funky until I do. Im going through another shop to get the eibachs and koni's installed and aligned.

Ok, so I get to America's Tire and before they put them on, I wanted to see them. We go out into the garage, open one of the boxes and FUCK, THEIR GOLD. 
So we go back inside and the guy found out that everything with the order was correct, the dumbasses in the warehouse sent the wrong ones.
I guess its hard to tell from the letters GL to GM
So now I get to wait ANOTHER 2 or 3 days... 
On a lighter note, they looked AWESOME in person
And the golds would look sweet on a PWP.

Eh? I never said it looks bad nor indicated the rims were going to make your TSX look bulkier.
5-spoke's seemed to make some TSX's look more bulky, so I though it had the possibility to make yours look bulkier as well.
Anyways, unfortunate how they made a mistake.
iamhomin, who's tires and rims are scratched, chipped, due to NY's potholes.

And the golds would look sweet on a PWP. The 18" 77W should we 19lb. The TL's 19" wheels are slightly different, they are a 3 piece wheel unlike the 1 piece wheel that I'm assuming joerockt ordered. The multi-piece wheel weighs more than the one piece.

Now that would look totaly
But damn they looked sweet in the box. I didnt even know they made golds. Their website only lists Gunmetal or Silver. 
Its funny because I KNEW something wasnt going to be right. So when he opened the box, I really wasnt that suprised. Lets just hope those toolboxes in the warehouse get it right this time.

in any case the multipiece weigh more than the one piece, but they do look slightly different, that'd be the only reason to get the 2-piece 18s.

But I like the look of them better.

YES! Finally! They look SWEET in person. These pics were taken at night so they dont do the look any justice. But, here you go. I'll get some pics during the day tomorrow. Wheel gap is pretty gnarly, but really during the day its not that noticable. Comptech springs are next, should be the perfect amount of drop for my taste.
