DOMINOUCH...Please say you won't mess up your GORGEOUS PWP TSX by putting some bling bling rims!! I don't mind some minor cosmetic modification to a car (like tinted windows, factory body kits etc..) but some take their car too far and just looks plain horrendous. I was watching this show last night on SPEED CHANNEL where this company modifies these Mercedes, Escalades (etc) and put this shiny 23" rims and add all sort of gizmo and I keep saying to myself, the car looked better when it went in then when it came out! Your TSX looks great, keep it simple and enjoy its elegance ....

^ He needs new wheels. As does every 09 TSX.

White is IMO by far the best color on the 09. Even better with tints.

dom...I agree with you that the 09 wheels are not the most sexiest ( the one on the upcoming 09 TL will be gorgeous btw) but some shiny/bling bling wheels can also make the car just look ugly in my opinion. I did love the wheel of the 2004-2005 TSX but I feel some get too carried away with their rim selection and push a sophisticated/luxury feel of the car to a disconnected look where its just way over the top. That is something I don't like about some of GM's car these days, some of their wheels look too shiny and by doing so, actually reduces the appearance of elegance of the car. Maybe I am getting old (37) but I much prefer elegance over artificial bling bling shiny wheels (not to mention those that add neon glowing green lights underneath the car with a 3000w stereo). I know you are not implying that level of modifications and I agree, I wish the factory wheels looked better but again, a balance needs to be achieved between improving and going too far...some know how to find that balance, others fail miserably.

I agree. I hate bling. Which is why I would suggest something tasteful like 18 inch A-Spec wheels or the wheels off an Accord coupe.

But every time I see those stock 09 wheels I just The look so tiny on the car.

dom...I agree that finding an Acura wheel is the way to go, possible cross shopping to another model (like the TL for example) but I am SO GLAD you agree with me on the bling bling

Yes, you must have missed it. I ordered a PMM/taupe 6MT/tech a couple of weeks ago. They haven't given me a firm delivery date yet.

A friend is buying my 04. I am trying to purchase the 09 without financing the difference. That being the case it may be a while before I can afford to put tires on the Accord rims. Photochops will have to suffice for now.

I put 19" rims on my TSX a couple of weeks ago, and I really think they enhance the sporty, agressive looks of the car. A huge plus is there was very little, if any, change to ride quality and now the car handles better than before. I don't regret this decision for one second.

Since I Am In Ny I Dont Know If I Want To Get Rims On The Car. I Had Rims On My Old Car And With The Potholes And Stuff I Had Many Problems With My Old Rims So I Really Dont Know If Im Going To Put Rims On. I Had 18's On My Old Rsx And With This New Tsx Im Going To Have To Put At Least 19's Which Will Be Even Harder To Take Care Of Without Gettin The Rims Bent And Stuff. I Feel The Stock Rims Are Fine. They Look Even Better In Person. And No Bling Bling Rims I Hate That.

White is the best color for it imo. Slamming it would help the stock rims look a little better.

"Title Case" is called that for a reason. Please, don't use it for paragraph text. It's not a 'cool look,' more like "painful to look at."

May I ask why anyone like the yellow fogs??? I think it makes them have that 'older' look, ya know?? Like when the lights have had their years and years of wear and it discolors the lenses??? Yea, that's why I think....


....and I guess that it is why it isn't my car. lol

Congrats on the new car anyways.

Back in the day, yellow was better at cutting through fog than white. They came like that out of the box. I guess "the look" is old school.

this is NOT irc or a chat room. learn to use the Internet!

Dukyjai, if you can't put the little bit of effort in finding the "license plate LED" threads where this is discussed,... my crystal ball predicts you may get banned right quick.

Before you do, here's my suggstion. Grasp a hammer firmly by the handle. Open the trunk lid so you can see teh license plate light cover. Start whanging at it with the hammer until the light cover is gone. There.

Maybe because posting essentially the same thing 3 times within the span of 3 minutes gets annoying really quick?

dukyjai - use the search function
david - ease up on the noobs
