i think the type s are decent and require replacements, but the other ones are horrible and beg for upgrades

Because a CL-S owner sold them to me for $400. Can you say you got your four after-markets that cheap...plus I like the 5 spoke design....

When you really compare to other stock wheels on sport sedans, the type-S ones are pretty hot. I personny like them. I wish they were available in 18 inch.

They make any tL-P look real sharp, and more sporty

Type S wheels + OEM body kit =

Because some people want to keep the nice clean stock look once in a while. Like I do, during the winter months.

haha because they look hot and i got my type-s rims w/ tires for only 270!!!

its a cheap alternative to paying 1000+ for aftermarkets

im running 19s right now and im probably gonna go back to Type S rims, much smoother ride and i dont gotta worry about potholes
