Put My Wheels back on for summer
I had forgotten just how well the TLs handles with REAL wheels on it and not the crap that Acura gives us stock. This really urk's me because the TLs would pull a hell of a lot better handling numbers if Honda gave it real tires and wheels. The BMW/Nissan come stock with ZR rated times and wide tires which barely give them a slight advantage, with the correct combo on the TLs... it would probably out handle them both hands down.

I don't think the TL is going to be outhandling any BMWs anytime soon, I don't really care if there were better tires on there or not.....but upgraded tires really do help a lot, it makes you realize how ****ty the stock tires really are!

While my may know a tad bit about cars, I think I'll take Car & Drivers opnion over yours... sorry... but they've been doing it for like 75 years...

BTW---did you find this article before or after you originally stated that "with the correct combo on the TLs... it would probably out handle them both hands down." You said it so matter of factly that the CL outhandled the BMW 330 in a recent C&D test.......oh, and unless it was this month's C&D, I couldn't find any articles on a comparo between the two.
