Chrome 17" Factory Type-S Wheels

I'm looking to replace my wheels with a set of chrome wheels. I'd like to keep the stock look, but I don't think Acura offers the 17- inchers in chrome yet. Does anyone know where I might find some, preferably a place that has an exchange program?

Thanks!!
Mike

You can get chrome wheels from the dealer. I got CLS chromes which are .5" wider but look exactly the same.

The only factory chrome wheels that dealer had when I bought mine were 16" wheels not the 17" that the TL-S has on it.

Fatsmith,
You might want to check into having your stock wheels chromed, there was a post ( I think in tires and wheels forum) where someone had taken pictures of the stock wheels chromed. There was a dealer that kept a couple of sets chromed and takes your stock wheels as part of the deal (sends them out to be chromed so they always have a couple of sets chromed). You might want to do a search over there if your interested and you can see them.

CJscot, they are not the same..Besides the half inch of extra width, CLS wheels have no lip, whereas the TLS has one.. Also the TLS spokes are a drop narrower than the CLS wheels.
