I hate scammers

Those are CL-S wheels. At least the seller didn't try to label it as a 4-door CL.

I'm pretty sure they are the Type-S wheels, thus going into the CL-S and the TL-S..

While we are talking about badge stuff..

What exactly does TL stand for? Total Luxury? TL-S = Total Luxury - Sport?

CL-S wheels are slightly different than TL-S wheels. You can tell by looking at them...So yes those are CL-S wheels.

Really? interesting.... care to tell me the difference.. I actually pulled up a quick pic of each rim before I posted, " I can't see a difference, can you see a difference?" (Used to be a line from an old ABC laundry detergent commencial)

I'm not trying to argue, just interested in the difference.

This is off my car, so I KNOW it is not a CL-S rim.

This is the one from the listing on craig's list


One looks brighter but that is the picture not the colour of the metal. Am I missing something?

Is it the little rim on the outer edge of the TL-S rim? It may not be on the CL-S rim, I can tell if it is the picture or not.. I was never that good at finding Waldo...

CLS spokes are narrower at the top and stick out more closer to the lip than the TLS ones.

Np...

The CL-S wheels are 7" wide and the spokes are a bit "flatter"than the TL-S wheels. The TL-S wheels are 6.5" wide and have a little more of a bulge at the top of each spoke. It's easy to see once you know what to look for. I hope that helps...

The body kit is off his SSM UA4. He needs to get them painted and buy the UA5 front lip already.

Touring Luxury, actually. Though total luxury is the obvious guess, and was mine before I knew what it was.
