I got them awhile ago from Joe (07wdptls)

I purchased the wheels with those center caps, excuse me if its not up to your standards...i didn't realize that you were looking at pictures of a honda. Even if it was one, or if thats the way of "hondas" why you hatin' on hondas when Acura is to Honda as Lexus is to Toyota, or Audi to Vdub's. You can't hate on the manufacturer when they produce the same vehicles. You aware a TSX is an Accord in Europe? does that make it of any lesser quality?

Just my

The rims looks nice but I would lose the BBS center caps, they just end up making people think they're something they aren't.

Next thing should be the Aspec kit.
