I am not sure, but I think Chromed CL-S rims would fit..though dont take my word for it.

Chrome rims are different for everyone, it has to suit your look. Ok, lets prove my point, Type S girl, post some pics of yourself so i can explain my point. Thanks. Post pics of yourself, cause without those pics, i dont think we can answer the chrome rim question, so help the guy out, be a sport, and show some pics.

Thanks

yea i thought about chroming the stock rims... but forget that since i hear all the horror stories about the rims being scatched easliy, so i figure to buy aftermarket rims and sell my brand new type-s rims to a TL owner.

Type-S Girl, your car looks great. What's the offset on your rims and what springs did you get?

They're somewhat custom...its not like I designed them or anything but they're custom made to fit the car. Thats why it took so long to get them. They had to be made then shipped to the US.

Putting Alba Blazes on a CL-S would be like Michael Jordan wearing Target's finest running shoes...I'd throw down some cash on a nicer set of wheels. Check out the Arelli's.
