Who is this?

I wanted to know who this is



and/or what kind of rims those are. I am going to be in the market for new rims come spring (ya, i know its only Nov) but I definately am going to go chrome and have to try and do some serious research on quality/reliability and looks. I drive a rediculous amount each day to work and my Konigs have held up well, but its time for someting different. I REALLY LOVE the SEMA Acura-CL rims and if anyone had a connect to get me those I would be forever grateful

They must make some kind of knockoffs that look similiar, ya think?

oh, dear GOD, NO! Those rims are fugly.....at least IMO. I just don't think that big bling-bling chrome wheels suit the overall image of our cars. But it is your car.....if you do get them, I hope you enjoy them. Besides, the rims you already have are pretty cool.

Ya, I hear ya. Chrome on silver doesn't realy go, but I love chrome rims. Are those 18''s or 17''s? I really like the Niche Bellas but don't think they fit our car



I also found some Chrome CL-S rims on ebay for about 1k without Tires though and was thinking of those, but haven't seen them on a silver tl ....oh well.....back to the drawing board

I cant get a drop just yet cuz my tires will more than likely scrub in tha back... They dont now, but I know they will...One quick question though, when your car is dropped, how much does it actually go down when you put say 2-3 people in tha back, does it go down like tha 2 inches the stock springs do, or is it stiff enough to only go down minimally???

Chrome CL-S wheels DO NOT look good in person. I've seen them before and there's just too much chrome surface, can't really explain it.

I agree....Chrome type-s rims do not look good.(my opinon)...I've seen them..They look weird...

There are some rims out there that have that OEM type-s look I believe Closer has those rims...I love them....

I agree.

BTW, welcome back Jason.:p
Haven't seen you post in a while.
Oh, the DVD navi is working just fine. Once again, thanks for the hook-up. I'll PM/e-mail you when I decide to get an upgrade.
