Aight I'm going to purchace my TL this week. I want to know What's a good price for Racing Harts C2(18 inch) and comptech springs? Should I buy the factory kit(bottom and wing spoiler) when I purchase my car or should I buy it seperatly and have sombody else install it? Last but not least how many coils do I have to cut or it will look clean without cutting? Also I want to say thxs for this forum because it really made me wanted a TL instead of the IS.

first of all, welcome to this board!!! ![](http://www.acura-tl.com/ubb/smile.gif)
i cannot answer questions regarding wheels because i don't know much, but if you wanna save some money you should buy the kit/spoiler seperately because dealers always want to rip people off. installation is easy for the kit.
comptech springs are 300 bucks from this website, and that's perhaps the cheapest you can find.
additionally, never cut coils. comptech springs will drop 1.25 inches and if you drop more you might need camber kits to correct them.

wings west kit is the way to go. as for the springs, I am assuming that you wanna cut them for a lower ride hight right? well get some eibach's they have low (prokit) and lower. comptechs will give you a close to stock ride, I hear. Intstallation for your kit is a snap. Everybody here can help you with that! right guys!!!

Don't cut the coils! buy the comptechs'...they are the best for their price. Don't know about rims...and go for either the West wing or the oem kit...but don't buy it from the factory..but it thru here...best price.

The best prices I've seen are at Tim's site mentioned above. $625 each for the C2's and $299 for Comptech Springs.
Welcome to the neighborhood.
