2002 Acura CL-S with H&R OE Sport Springs
Hey guys,
Just wanted to thank everyone for helping me decide on the springs. Wanted to post some pics for you guys to take a look at, just dont thrash me too bad for the wheels. Thought they would look good but am having second thoughts...

They do look like TL rims. The drop looks good!

I think it looks good.
Do you have any rubbing problems. I was thinking about getting those but Acura said that they will rub because of the offset. So I got the ones off a TSX instead.

If you didnt drop your car a bit, those 04 rims would have looked like crap. There are 2 2nd gen TLs on the TL site, one droped, one not dropped w/04 rims, and the one without the drop looked hideous. The problem is that the 3rd gen TL can handle alot more rim/tire size than the 2nd gen TL/CL, hence its offset isnt really correct.
However, your CL-S looks good. Best of luck.

The offset is perfect and there are no rubbing issues. The rims and tires a relatively cheap. I picked them up for $800.00 and they only had 5 miles on them. Were take-offs at an Acura dealership that did a A-spec package upgrade on an 04' TL. Make sure and go with the H&R "OE" sport springs #51858-55 for the drop you see on the picture. It measures about 1-1/4" all around. The handling is a little better but that great Acura rides stayes the same, no need for a camber kit either with only 1" drop.

The OE sport springs "51858-55" fit perfect. Matched all OEM specs and made for an even drop. Just make sure and re-use the factory spring isolators to eliminate squeeks. I used a expoy/glue to make sure they stayed on.
