How sad......

I think my new winter wheels are as hot, or even possibly hotter than the stock TL-S wheels i use in the summer. im runnin blizzak ws-50. these wheels are the oem sunburst wheels came as an option on the TSX if im not mistaken. they are 17x7. I really like how they flow with the ssm. defi a good pickup for a winter set, only ran me a c note.

TL-S rims are better looking but the sunburst looking rims you have on are alright and if it was cheap then its all good. They look way better then those who bought on 22's with chrome and stuff

I think you're going to have a fit trying to clean the salt, sand, and dirt out of those wheels during the winter.

Looks good man, but the TL-S wheels are real hard to beat. I had trouble letting go of my CL-S wheels..

These are just his winter set of rims, he's going to put some summer tires on the TL-S rims and run those for 3/4s of the year.
