'05 A-Spec Option

Does anyone know if anything has changed for the '05 A-Spec package (other than the wheels-I know they changed)? Is the suspension the same? Also, does anyone know if Acura will now allow the suspension to be sold separatley?

I checked the sticky before I posted my original question... there was/is nothing specifically about the '05A-Spec package. Like I said in my original post, is there anything different OTHER than the wheels? You said no, where did you get your info? B/c I couldn't find anything on Acura's site about the '05 A-Spec package. Also, it seems that all of the sudden a bunch of the dealers now have A-Spec suspensions available, whereas before they were hard to come by... which is why I was curious as to whether or not the suspension is now available separately.

Thanks,

Blah...I"ll save you the trouble...
A-SPEC™ KIT

The Acura A-SPEC kit is a complete dealer installed accessory package that addresses the demands of performance enthusiasts by providing enhanced handling, aggressive looks, quality and durability. The Acura TL A-SPEC kit includes a suspension package, 18-inch alloy wheels, high-performance brake pads for the automatic transmission model, an aero kit and a sport steering wheel.

The suspension package features track-tuned shocks and springs that lower the car approximately one inch.

The A-SPEC kit also includes 18-inch alloy wheels, which are shod with high performance AVS ES100 235/40VR18 95W Yokohama tires designed specifically for the TL A-SPEC kit.

While the 2005 TL with 6-speed manual transmission features powerful 4-piston Brembo® front brakes, the A-SPEC kit for automatic transmission-equipped models includes high-performance brake pads.

The package also comes equipped with an aero kit that includes either a deck lid or rear wing spoiler.

To learn more, please contact your Acura dealer.

your question was "if anything else on a-spec has changed except the wheels" and my answer was "yes everything is the same except the wheels" i mean the wheels are teh same too but different color or maybe smaller in width
