'07 CGP TL gets some A-Spec love...
as per this thread:
https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-97/picked-up-set-used-18-aspecs-823761/
I slapped them on and took the TL for a spin..didn't notice anything out of the ordinary at all except:
1. maybe 20% more stiffer ride
2. wheels are definitely heavier than stock 07 17"
pix: **TL is stock height*

Damn those look great!
You'll get used to the rougher ride. It's due to the smaller sidewall on the tires.

can someone help me out with the a-spec color? i know there are 3: sparkle silver, gunmetal and some other type of silver. the only thing these rims didnt come with is the appropriate center cap so i gotta order those. for now, i stuck in my center caps from my stockies but obviously they are a bit off.
all i can say is the surface of the rim is very reflective so it's not a matte finish... but i dunno the actual color.
thanks!

They for sure are not chrome. I'm really not certain, but I'd say silver sparkle. IIRC, the gun metal ones were only made for a limited time and the only options in production now are chrome and silver sparkle. Again, not certain, but I believe so...

99% sure the rims you have are Hyper Silver. Whatever the color though, they look great on your car!!![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

It's not reflective. Has a glossy coating and very shiny. Yah I'm pretty convinced
That they are hyper silver. I pm'd Ack. If someone has the part no of the center cap
Handy please reply. Thanks.

CGP is great color. (Almost as good as AM...
) Seriously though, it seems to pick up hues from the environment and you get the subtle color differences from different angles. Nice, ride.

Those centercaps you ordered were cheap for a reason. Look at the lip around them and then look at the ones you have now. Those are not OEM centercaps.

got the center caps from Tim .... did i get the right ones? they dont seem to match the wheels polished finish but i guess that's how it is?
Also.. i looked behind the wheel and saw no wheel part number.. just the engraved words 'ENKEI', 'HONDA MOTOR CORP', '18x8 45'..and some other number that says 'SEP 880B '
