It's finally time for B service, not sure what that entails, but wondering if I should throw my stock wheels back on my leased TL. I've heard that dealers sometimes attribute tranny problems to aftermarket wheels, especially if they are bigger than stock. Well I don't have any tranny problems so should I just leave on my aftermarkets? Thankss in advance.

well there has been many stories about dealers scratching rims as well. so if you are worried about that too, then i'd swap to stock

I know this is off topic, why did you mod a lease?

does he have spinners on a TL? :shakehead

anyway I dont know what a B check intails but if it concerns taking them off then I would be concerned about the wheels..

Put the stock wheels back on. I just had my service B done today adn along witht eh oil change the rotate the tires and I wouldn't trust the dealer with aftermarket rims. (if they scratch my car up no way am I letting them tuch my $2,000+ wheels.)

BTW which dealer did you go to? I went to Paragon and I wouldn't trust them with my wheels.

nymalu86- my dealer is Acura of Manhattan

nayyarn- I don't really consider these "mods" mainly becuase it's possible for me to return the car to stock in less than a half hour, and wheels are transferable from car to car

trancemission-yes I do have spinners on a TL

OK, I can't advise about whether to take the wheels off, though I doubt they'd be noted for posterity in the case of some future tranny problem...but c'mon man, let's see some pics (or if you're feeling really giving, video) of those rims!
