keep the CAI or else I will come over there and laugh at u!

don't worry about sucking up water... people are just freaking out and or drive not the smartest (cause it's a challenge hydrolocking a car)

way i see it, if it's gonna happen it'll happen anyways cause that's fluky shyt.

You can cut like a inch off the CAI to make it higher off the ground .... Those are some sick wheels

i would sand those wheels down and re-paint them a different color... like gunmetal. Since u got time on ur hands, that's what I'd do.

get out all the lil imperfections (i hate scratches on my rims!) and re-paint w/e color u lke best... why not

Paint the inside of the spokes black. Makes the rim look bigger and more agressive

Yeah my black CAI looks pretty kickass under the hood. At least IMO The polished finish only looks good on the SSM CL's.... again IMO.

225,50 R17. Thats a good size wall, will make it look alittle lower hopefully.

I want alittle wide ass look. my car had 235 18 on it and it sat amazing.

Yeahh its all about the 225!

The 235's stick out a bit on my dads accord in the front, the back sits perfect... cant wait to drop that car.


And yes they are TL rims but i couldnt argue on the price at all.

Thanks chris!

Yeah i like the Cold air, i just want to change it up a bit, and i think the chalk board paint would be different, you can draw on it and what not...kinda a neat idea!


My buddy did it to his hood and it was cool.

Really? Well i kinda though they were TL rims but its kinda hard to see the difference unless there both beside eachother...


Wheel# A-71719U20, 2002 ACURA TL Wheels TL Rims

Size: 17" x 6.5"
Finish: SILVER (OEM RIM)
Style: ALLOY WHEEL, 17 X 6.5, 5 SPOKE,


Wheel# A-71715U10, 2001 ACURA CL Wheels CL Rims

Size: 17" x 7"
Finish: MACHINED FACE SILVER (OEM RIM)
Style: ALLOY WHEEL, 17 X 7, 5 SPOKE


So the CL type S wheel is .5" bigger

yeahh.. the way i can usually visually tell is that the TL-S wheels are flat faced while the CL-S wheels convace in very slightly and the spokes on the TL-S wheels go from the middle to the outside evenly while the CL-S ones seem to get just a bit thinner on the way out.
