personally...i don't think Chrome wheels are a good way to go for SSM....i feel that its trying to match when it dosn't match so perfectly. if you have tints, i think black wheels with a chrome or polished lip would look great! or gun metal/hyper black wheels would look great.

are u going for the sporty look? or the luxrious pimp mobile look?
also, whats ur budget?

if you want to look sporty, avoid getting deep dishes... if you want to dress up the car, go with the dish look

personally, i think a SSM tsx looks better with dishes... some suggestions would be volk LE37T, volk GTU (if you like meshes), OZ superleggera III, BBS LM's, or a really nice set of HRE's..

As much as I love falken tires, falken is not a brand known for making wheels, especially not for a $33,000+ TL.. but to each his own...

I have SSM with solagard tint. I was thinking about getting a similar rims like this one on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/RVM-3...temZ8001772659

Then Vr0om posted pics of his rims, I fell in love with it. I think I'll be getting the G-Game. Check his thread out. I think the rims should look good on SSM

What do you mean by "dish"? Are you referring to the "lip"? If so, then forget about the LE37T. You don't get much lip out of LE37T or TE37. These are not designed to have lip.

For a SSM, I think gun metal or black will look good. I was gonna go with gun metal, but decided to go with the classic silver at the last minute.

BTW, shouldn't this thread in Tires, Wheels, & Suspension forum???

IBTM.

If you are on a budget, go to http://www.handaaccessories.com/tsx.html (a sponsoring link here). You can get the Silver Stars or another model called the "SF High Polish" for $174/ea. plus very reasonable UPS Ground shipping. I damaged at least two of my rims recently, so I'm thinking of upgrading. I would've probably been lame and simply replaced the stock wheels, but my dealership tried to bend me over for $600/ea. Not gonna happen ....
