These wheels sound heavy.

Copper plated then nickle plated then chrome plated. That's a lot of metal.

Those are chrome 07/08 TL stock wheels. Can't find any pics of them on a CL though. They will fit just fine if you're not lowered.

ya they are replicas of them but in chrome(which I love) for some reason. I have seen a lot of posts about them but all that say they are the pictures are no longer available, or they are the black chrome a-specs I already have.

You should be fine then. Maybe someone could photoshop them for you.

TL aspecs are much nicer I think. they must have the same specs as the aspecs you're on now. 8" wide +45 offset.

I do these are what I have


They have curb rash and about 0-60% tread. I do like the other ones I posted above, but would love to see how they flow on our cars.

The plating is only a couple microns thick. It'll add less than 1lb per wheel.

I think those and some cleared headlights would look good.

Putting 01-02 headlights won't look good. What do you mean by cleared?

Correct And its all preference what looks better. I think the 01-02 look cleaner. Somehing about the blacked housing inside the 03 that makes them look off. But to each his own. I had them cleared on my old tl and i loved them.

Why would they not look good, because it was not the proper ones for the year. Not being a dick just wondering

both headlights have the orange reflector, so if you buy 01-02 lights you'd have to open them up to remove that anyways. The 01-02 have chrome instead of being blacked out inside the headlight like the 03. Most people don't like the chrome look, but again to each their own.

I think they are replica aspecs. They are black chrome. They are 18x7.5. So either way it would not matter in that matter a guess
