I work for an Illinois Acura dealer and we just sit and laugh at this site. Oh I have a squeak here and I have a rattle there.

we don't have an acura dealership here in the city of chicago. but, the salesman who sold me mine lives in chicago.

and some point McGrath Acura is opening a location downtown here. it was supposed to be open in Jan. of 05, but apparently they are having problems with the city of chicago concerning ordinances/zoning or something like that. this is what he told me anyway as of 6/04 and again in 1/05.

but i would be pissed to find out this was someone at McGrath Acura of Westmont sitting back and saying something like that.

PROBABLY A NOBODY, READ ALL HIS PREVIOUS POSTS, NOTHING BUT IGNORANT COMMENTS!

Actually u might be right! I work for Honda/Acura and we do have some negative minimum wage earners who despise people that can actually afford a new Acura/Honda. They drive their little 88 corollas to work and never have anything good to say. Do yourself a favor and ignore that asshole because i can can almost gaurantee that he doesnt own a TL or anything respectable for that fact

The only retard is you. It's people like you that help drag Acura's reputation down. Instead of doing something right the first time and taking care of the customer's needs. You f*&k things up even more. Maybe if you were actually GOOD at your job and not a dumbass, which is quite obvious, peope would not complain as much. But I guess something as simple as that is lost on someone as stupid and ignorant as yourself.

Please do yourself a favor and go play somewhere.......hopefully with urself. We all know u dont own a TL or u wouldnt be here acting like a fucking retard ragging on the car and its owners. Let the rest of us adults share ideas and enjoy the car we spent our hard earned cash on.

I'm half and half on the choice of rims for your car. The rims look really good no question about that. I like the lip of the rim not big or to small. The bolts around the edge i really don't like. Its just to much going on. I'm also not a big fan of all crome. I like to mix and match. I have a 04 WDP and my rims have a crome lip but silver spokes. The car still looks good just that i have different prefrences.

Sorry to hear that...



I was also wondering what the car rides like with the 19's on it. I've been looking around at wheels and had originally planned to go with 18's to get more cushion (larger tires) under the car but the 19's look really nice.

I'm also a little concerned about the low profiles on the 19's because my wife drives the car also.

the offset is +45 ....

and the car rides nice on the 19" wheel ... you have to be careful & avoid potholes but eh wheels are very strong & durable

i'll get more pics of it as soon as the rain ends and i can wash the car
