Another 07 TL-S (pics) for the gallery

I put these up in a wheel and tire thread but here they are for the gallery.
Wheels are by Motegi Racing.

Nice tls!! but honestly not feeling the rims...I think they're too small (17's i guess) you should have gotten them 18s, but oh well as long as you like it is all good

Hahaha,

They are 17s. It's my FIL's car. He didn't want to fork out the $$$ to step up to 18's or 19's. He wanted to stay 17's with the factory tires.

IMO it looks 10 times better than the OEM brake dust colored 17s though.




Okay, maybe they do look just a LITTLE bit small.

I should also add that the photo's don't really do it justice. It looks much better in person.

Just wondering here....

Does everyone also think the OEMs look too small? They are the same size.

TL-S WHEELS ARE HOT!! Please put those back on your car because those Walmart wheels make your car look pretty bad.

Any plans to cover up the seats? Maybe one of those sheepskin seat covers? j/k

I just think the wheels make the TL's look go down about $15k. That's just my

LOL, I'm not feeling the love here.

I'll give in to fact that these look small for some reason. :surrender But the dust colored stockers look like poop to me.


To each his own, I guess.

Those look okay, but I definitely prefer your stockies over the chromies. How about you get the stock ones powdercoated? They look Really nice when done right

Thanks. I wouldn't mind the stockers if they were chromed. Just can't get past the dirty grey color.

Otherwise the car is awesome.
