They're alright. Headlights look a little dirty though.

They look legit.

I know that when you do finally get wheels, your wheels are going to be sick as fuck!

Hope you didn't pay for those wheels since the stock type s wheels look much better. Car looks great as always though.

Thanks for all the feedback guys, I honestly wish our stocks came wide as these wheels, makes our cars look so much aggressive and handles better too.......

You can see how the front tires sticks out, compared to if I had my other stock wheels, they would be sittin inside, I just love the "poked out" look for stock wheels

Slammed, they look pretty good.. though, why not run some spacers on your stock Type-S wheels to make it more flush until you get some rims?

They look good, but I think the stock Type S looked better on it. That 2nd pic (rear angle shot) Looks mean.
Check PM.

I searched and came up nothing...even look through the wheels/tire spec thread. Since we're on the topic of wheels and spacers. What size spacers and brand will i need for the TL-S wheels if i decide to do it? I also need to get longer wheels studs cause of the spacers, correct?

18's would give a lower stance, you could make 18's look dope i.e, Josh and his wheels. It's w.e suits your style, me personally, 18's.

i think the 02-03's demand a larger wheel..

call me crazy but the front end being to a "larger" look.. take 19's better then my 99 would.

i think 99-01s look great with 18's and 02-03's look awesome with 19's...

i know.. its wierd
