17s lowered would look fine, personally I like 18s but they are a little more expensive. If you are going to pay money for rims, I would invest in something a little more orginal than the TLS rims.

Now I'm pretty sure you can put the 17" 2002 Type S on a 2001 TL ... but I remember reading somewhere that the steering radius of the turning rack is reduced to accomodate the bigger tire ??? ...

Steering Wheel Turns, lock-to-lock 3.11 (REG TL) 2.93 (Type S) according to acura.ca.

But YES if I was spending the cash on RIMS I'd go with 18"
