Yeah, those push the limit on what looks too big on a TL. I think those wheels were meant for cars like Accords and G37's with huge wheel wells. It's also strange to look at because that TL is tucking tire, yet it has the ground clearance of a stock TL.

Agreed with the others. That style of wheel really needs big rotors behind them since they are so aggressive.

Car is super clean, though, and I love the stance.

--Pics are not that bad, good looking ride.
--Like the wheels
--Like the LED headlights
--Not sure if you'll get away with the blue tint on the headlights though.

ehhhh i duno i think im just tired of seeing vossen rims in general they flood every board even the ISF guys are running them too....

i think they are just too big looking on the TL... like mentioned above great for the G37 because they have the large fenders

Being a Vossen owner my self,I still have to agree with everyone else...those look alittle to big..19's would look better....if it had a lip in a 20inch u could pull it off...like the cv1 I have could have done the 20's no problem...if the Tl had a widebody kit u could pull these off...always wondered what these would look like on our 3g's....lose the headlight tint...

Wheel failure. Try again. Maybe Advan RS? And less headlight LED strips. Don't ruin a KBP.

I love those wheels. Do some body work and lower it some and you'd be perfect.

Where'd you get the headlight tint at? I'm a fan...

Thanks for all the comments guys appreciate it i do agree they did look big on the tl being 20's but they are really starting to grow on me now so i probably will be lowering it some more and putting some more camber on them.

And as far as the headlights go there is not tint on them its just the crappy quality of the iphone camera making it look like there is my headlights are just blacked out with the led strip but really appreciate all the comments negative or positive!

I'm wanting these in 19's These are pretty much one of the only wheels I really like. They look good on almost any car.

Seen these wheels a lot lately. Wheels are too big for me personally, looks like a show car. I think 19s would look better. Still not bad though, good lookin car I love KBP.

I think it looks good. Yes, the style of the wheel makes it look bigger than what it is so 19's (which they now sell) would probably be just right. I also would have probably gone with the ones that do not have the insides painted black which would help you appreciate more of the actual wheel and not just the spokes but these still look good in my opinion.

People are right that with wheels this style and this size you will get alot of exposure of your calipers and such so they need to be on point at all times (rust free, fresh/glossy paint, you might even do the RDX brake cover on the rear if you haven't done so already).

Maybe i missed it in the thread but are they staggerd?? The front seems to have as much of a dish as the rear? I'm loving the dish all around.

I think you have big calipers up front, did you need spacers to clear them? I would probably paint them another color to break up so much blue and give it some contrast but thats just me....still look great.

Over you can see that my opinion of your look is good. I have been thinking about getting these same wheels in 19's so maybe i'm a bit biased. Either way i look forward to your response to my questions and keep up the good work.

Oh and PS.....dont forget the rear Aspec lip....with those wheels it will really help even out the look.

Regards,
KBP fan
