what do you guys think about these wheels





they are 18x7.5 +40 all around. a little weak for my liking on the offset, but should be better for an aggressive drop. i really want 38+ with 8.5

can someone photoshop this on my car?

Not really feeling those wheels. What color TL do you have? If you really want 18x8.5 wheelsw there ashould be plenty of choices out there.

the wheels are nice if you're looking for a VIP look, but if i were you, i'd go bigger, maybe 19x8.5 in front and 9.5s in the rear, preferably staggered.

Wheels like that would only look good in a 19.

They look like they belong on a mercedes.

Post a decent side shot of your car and I'll do a quick chop for you

dont really like wheels with the big face look. good for VIP. shitty for a sporty look. they dont look too light either.

I personally love mercedes wheels and the wheels that look like mercedes wheels but only on some cars, like audi, passats... I dont think they would look all that good on an acura because of the sporty look. tl is narrow and pointy in the front to pull that off.

These wheels can only be halfway pulled off if they are big. 18s aren't big.

the tl has too slim of a body to make those look good. only big bodied vip cars like the celsior look good with full faced rims.
