Yeah, just thought I'd share. The thing's a helluva lot faster than my '04 TSX for obvious reasons (280hp v. 200hp & 254 ft.lbs. v. 166 ft.lbs.). Mods thus far are limited to 3M clear bra on the hood, bumper, fenders, and wing mirrors and Acura remote start. I do have a new set of summer tires (Continental ContiExtreme DW's in 235/45YR18) going on in the next few weeks since the stock Michelin touring tires (MXM4's) are junk on wet roads..

nice! I like the stock 18"s. You should be able to sell those easily to someone with the 2nd gen tsx 4-cyl

Where in Chicagoland are you located? If you're looking to sell the stock rims, i might be looking to buy

I'm up in Wauconda but I doubt I'll be selling the stock wheels. Besides, considering the size of these things (18"x8") and the fact that they're stock, they'll likely be freaking heavy and weaker, as well, when compared to aftermarket wheels. I'll find out exactly what they weigh once the shop dismounts the Michelin's.

sweet ride. i like the rims of your 1st gen tsx!

Sounds good, It would be interesting to see what the 18" weighs. I'm in Carol Stream.

Very nice, would be interested in the weight of the stock 18" rim also.

Wasn't the V6 suppose to have a "slightly" revised fascia than the I4?

Nice!

It's funny to see the evolution of Acuras now especially when you see that side by side comparison...the cars are getting bigger...probably to accommodate the expanding American waistline.

Nice car by the way.

The centre cap on my stock 17" wheel(made by Enkei) has a flat black A imprinted on the aluminium cap. Your 18" wheel (made by Hitachi) centre cap looks a lot nicer.

what in the world made you buy another tsx? why not save money and get a more fun car?

damn tech you notice the smallest details! True though--the raised A is much nicer.

Saw my first CBP V6 while I was leaving work last week--put my CBP to shame. Gotta get my rims on there already!

New tires! Expect a review of them pretty soon. My first impression: freaking amazing and they'll get even better since they're not broken in yet.




And for those who are interested in the weight of the stock 18" wheel....

28.4lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At least I saved 6.5lbs per axle with the Continental's (versus the Michelin's) but as soon as I can swing it, I'll be getting some sub-20lb 18" wheels.

Nice car!
