*Update* The wheel whore strikes again. After kicking myself for selling my last set of 3G TL 8.5 A-specs to a local forum member, I've been searching for another set ever since. Due to the fact that these wheels are very rare and inflated asking prices when they do turn up, I was able to find a set in very good condition with no bends and very minor curb rash. These wheels will be with me until the car is ever sold, which will be no time soon.

If you can find a set, get them before they are gone.

I really like (IMHO) how the 8.5 wheels match the bottom trim part of the grill as well as the bottom grey areas of the 04-06 ASPEC kit.

I never noticed how the Aspec 8.5 color matches the bottom grey areas of the 04-06 ASPEC kit as well as the bottom trim part of the grill. Great observation.

No... Just like to take pictures in front of the Pagoda. The color blends well with my car.

I'm not sure Steven... Maybe 35% tint and just enjoy the car as is. I most definitely will have a new set of wheels for next summer. LOL

Nice!! Looks like we have the same taste!

Great choice with the SC1s . Had mine for 5 seasons now. Sick of it? No way, love em. You can get WORK wheels custom ordered with all kinds of special options. You just need money and patience. They come machined the way we have them but can be ordered in black chrome. The windows can come in black, silver, gold, actually whatever I've seen custom options. AFAIK production has stopped on SC1s though.

My winter setup is A-Spec 8.5s too. Nice to see a modded TL in the more rare RRP.
