Technically speaking the width of the tire is in millimeters but the sidewall height or "aspect ratio" is a percentage of the width. A 40 series tire is NOT the same sidewall height. It will be higher on a 245 width than a 235.

Photoshop CS

P.S. Have just started doing grills. Don't know how to use everything, still learning. Used photoshop for first time ever last week! Haven't read manual, but just messed with it a bit.

This isn't too far off-topic, but for those of you who are looking for the TPMS sensors on your 07 TL, the Acura part number is 06421-S3V-A04 (same as the 07 RL). I know I'm not the only one buying new sensors so that I can keep my stock wheels for the winter.

Ron,

this kit is unbelievable. Nice an subtle and agressive. It looks like an OEM kit, which is the best, i think. It looks waaaay better than the new OEM kit. I am almost positive that this thing will be a home run for you. The kit plus the agressive grill....wow!!! Not to mention the new wheels. You have come a long way my friend. Amazing.
I would consider a TL just because of what you are making for it.

I have to echo the previous question... I'm pretty sure there might be a conflict here, but would it be possible to get the Acura logo in the center of the wheels? No matter how nice the rims are, I always think not having actual Acura logo cheapens the look.

... yes? no? maybe?

you may be able to use your existing center caps but the color probably wouldn't match.

I would really like to see more for the 02-03 Tls. I have on '02 TL-S and I've noticed as for as the body goes, there are 2 lip kits and one hideous bodykit. I have the Acura lip kit now, but I would love to see more of a variety in parts as a whole for these cars. There just isnt a whole lot out there compared to the CL. Oh well, just an opinion. I do love the wheels you guys put out, they are gorgeous, and the RonJon lip kit for the CL,

Dragon, don 't worry, i got on ehere for you.

As for that photoshopped car with the weird calipers, thats just an edited image, so its ok.

And the centercaps, Our centercaps are really nice and modern, but if you really want "A" centercaps, then the integra centercaps will fit, bit the TL ones. Reason bing that the caps on the TL are so large, it almost interferes with the drilled holes we put in between the lug nut holes.

As for the Legend Availability:

sorry for the delayed reply, here is a preliminary image of the 20" Legend Type II wheel before the lip is polished and the face is painted. There was a delay with the 18" and 19" wheel becasue the 5 x 114.3 bolt pattern passed, but we were having issues with the 5 x 120 bolt pattern structure. the holes were too close to the edge. So we adjusted it according and we will contiune with the production. This along with the paint is setting us back a few weeks, but I am safe to say that the wheels are well under way and in progress. the 20" is being tested right now and will be shown shortly.

Fresh out of the mold:

I was keeping hope alive that I'd have the wheels before I go out of town for Easter, but I can wait a little while longer for these.

Small change in plans, lol. The Inspyres and Servo are quickly going on backorder across the board, we need to get those back in stock asap. So the limited budget had to be changed. I want to do this kit too, maybe some preorders will get it going, either that or take out a loan which could take mad long to process.

i read the whole thread but don't know if the info for the 20's is updated. question on the 20's and i have a 3G TL Auto...i can run these front and rear?

also, with a +42 offset will these require me to roll the fenders or can i drop them in and bolt them up? yea, i'm dropped but i can adjust the height if i need to.

any update on when these will be available? thx.

Yes, the 2004-2007 TL auto will allow the 20" Legend Type II to fit perrctly, no rubbing and no fender rolling.

The 07 tls lip is sweet. Please, please, please make it compatible. The 05 kit is a little to rice for my tastes.

Also, flush rims are not that hot. Go with the lip.

i gotta say that just coming out of the mold those 20" legends with the lip look like they are going to be sick. can't wait for pics of the finished rim and might have to hook that up after they are in production.

Well, we could be starting it tomorrow, but like I said before, Just went on backorder on a few part numbers for the Inspyre and Servo, and that is the company's bread and butter to function. So i have to refill the stock asap with whatever budget that was iontedned for the TL-S kit. However, preorders would be awesome, and to tell you the truth, I could offer a sick discount if preorders were payed in full and we used those funds to get this thing to the market. That is against my philosphy of using customer's money or taking out loans to pay for projects that we can't fund in case it flops.

Besides, we can only make it for the 07 TL-S, becasue it is an add on lip kit, and the rest of the Tl front bumpers won't be able to acept the front and rear without custom modifications.
Don't you have an 05?

just a suggestion, but the rear add-on piece seems to be missing something. I think it needs something to fill in the space between the exhausts, it looks too high compared to the ends. Just a thought...
