Have Tanner photoshop the rim you want onto your 96TL, but I think you have to provide a pic of your car first. Ask him.

I remember Rice1304 saying Ace rims are of low quality. He probably used the term crappy somewhere . But yeh, be careful not to buy rims that will get messed up easy.

I don't know about the quality of the rim, but I think it would look sweet in a 17 on your TL. Be very careful in deciding, it's a very expensive decision.

I'm not like the other guys posting on this topic, I've only been looking for rims for my TL for about 4 months so far.

the spade and monaco look better IMHO. I was going to get the Spade until my Type-S rim opportunity came up. Quality is just ok, but they are distributed locally here in N. Cal.

plain but easy to clean....watch for quality though!!! Look at MSW and Borbet they are relatively inexpensive and good quality.

Hey man. I love Ace rims. I bought the Spades in 18" and put them on my Legend. About 2 weeks after i bought them I totalled the car. It was either the ditch or the deer, and I chose the ditch. Anyways, check out the spades.

Go to Legend Gallery; 2nd Generation; and click on the name David Workman. This will give you an idea of what I had. I say go with 18"s. But not the millenia's. Too plain.

Ha ha, yep, made in Gilroy!

Hey grksfinest, it took me almost a year to make up my mind. Go with what you like! Also have you checked the the Discount Tire's Interactive wheel thing where you can see different rims & sizes on the TL? Pretty cool, but the TL's got wheel gap (not lowered). Good luck, and make sure you ask Tim info@autocarparts.com to see if he can get what you want before you buy retail.

Nice looking rim. You can probably get away with the 42 offset. My rims have 42 offet and they fit perfectly.

They are alright. It might look good but it won't be my first choice of rims. Just my opinion.
