Never seen those HFP wheels. Your car flows very nicely. Looks sweet.

Thanks, I think that's why I like them so much, goes really well with the color of the car. Getting the spacers on Monday, so I will let you know how they turn out.

I have the H&R springs installed. REALLY nice. They ride quality is amazing. My wife even noticed between my last TSX which had the Eibach's installed. I would highly recommend the H&R.

Yeah, my plans exactly. Dark tint would really ruin the look I want, going for a very light tint.

The color combo between the wheels and the car works really well, I agree with the light tint

Only suggestions I'd make is to get spacers to set those wheels a tad more flush with the arches, but you're already onto that, can't wait for updated pics

Congrats- The H&R springs and HFP wheel looks really awesome on your car.

I am also getting mine lowered but only 0.8" with Honda sports suspension. With wife and two kids, I need to allow for some clearance for the heavier load.

if you drop it 0.8" please post up some pictures. becuase i am thinking of lowering mine in the near future yet i dont want too low, so i want to see how it'll look with 0.8"

I got them from a Acura dealer in Las Vegas Nevada. They were selling them on Ebay but purchased from them directly. Got them for $1185 shipped, and that included the rims, TPM sensors, and Honda emblems for the rims.

The dealership is Findlay Acura. The number is 888-304-4050 and ask for Oscar. Not sure if they have any more, but worth a shot. Otherwise, you might find them on ebay for around the same price.

I WISH!! ha-ha... nah, the tires were NOT included. Got me some Toyo Proxes and let me tell you they are sick! Figure a good set of tires will run you approx 200 a wheel which for me was more than half the price of the rims, but worth EVERY penny!

Wow, this makes me really interested in re-purchasing a TSX instead of the TL. Great lookin' whip bro. I'm still driving my 06 TSX but the V6 TSX really is on my radar and I'm extremely hopeful that Acura can release a TYPE-S version or maybe an AWD version of this car.

Both are really great cars, but it was an easy choice for me because the wife got the TL.. so I was kinda stuck the with TSX In all actuality, I actually love the TSX.. Love the sporty look. This is my third TSX (First was an 04 Auto, second was an 06 6 speed, and now the 09). The 09 is by far the best version of the TSX. More wide body look, and the interior is hands down the best feature of the car.

I personally don't think we will ever see a Type S for the TSX.... but you never know. My previous.. previous.. Acura was a CL-Type s and man let me tell you, that car was SICK. Lots of power.

Good luck with your decision, I know I am a die hard Acura fan.. always have been... always will be.

Well, I have everything except one important thing... TIME.. which really sucks because I hate starting a project and not finishing at 100% I have to wait to do the emblems until I take the tires off, because you cant get the center cap off without taking the wheel off (which I need to do for the lugs anyways). Heading to NY this weekend, so hoping since I have some vacation time when I get back, I will finish these little things then. I will update the pics when I get everything finished.
