Bill, it's going to take me a while to get used to the wheels. I like the tails!

Apparently, the 3rd gen is becoming entirely too affordable. Those wheels belong on a truck, like a Toyota Tacoma or Chevy Tahoe. Way too 'busy' for the TL.

i think they look cool i think the silver edge design takes away from the rim and does make it look a lil cheesy... i think paint that black and the rims will look better.... or better yet paint the rims a matte white that might look cool and show the 5 spoke design off better and rear concave look

Wheels are way too much for me. Make the car look too high IMO, and I'm not a fan of the style at all. To each his own, though.

Those aren't Work or Volk wheels and they aren't hella flush so they suck.

The more I look at them, the more I like them. Like others have said, its different, you have a theme and it flows together. Your tails and headlights look great with them! Only thing I'd suggest is finishing off the A-Spec kit, but I'm sure you're probably working on that. Nice work.

The wheels would be sick as fuck if it didnt have the silver accents on them in that design. Looks decent though

Sorry, not a fan of the wheels at all. They're just not suited for the TL. Other than that...the car looks fresh!

Thanks guys I welcome the replies good/bad. The car has tein ss on it. I put em on shortly after I got it. Its pretty low in the front the back could def. Use a bit more drop but I'm waiting on the extra cash to have the fenders rolled for no rub. I figured the wheels would be hated on on here the fact of the matter is I've had a lot of Volks and wanted something different I love these wheels and it gives it IMO a more sophisticated look they are giovannas and this is an Acura not a Honda civic or 350z I'll get some more pics up these don't do it justice. Aspec parts are coming with an atlp exhaust soon thanks!!

I hope it was clear that my volk and work comment was intended to be sarcastic since it seems like those are the only brands that people applaud on here. I really dig those wheels and the fact that you had the balls to think outside the box.

You sure if you lower the rear more the camber won't allow you to clear fender?

That done, it'll be perfect!

Car looks great . Like everyone else, I'm not feeling those wheels. IMO 20's are ballin' wheels but it gives the car that lifted look.

I actually like it. I thought it was going to be a disaster when I saw your title stating you had 20's on. But they're not bad at all...

Like the others have said, get the rest of the lip kit and it will look awesome. Keep up the good work.

I had the same "oh no" thought when I read TL on 20's but I was actually pleasantly surprised. OMG WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?

Its notjust the silver on it but the hundreds of rivets in the wheel that makes it not flow with the car.If u got the same style rims in black and concave it would be $ And get 19 inch rims also,I'm sure it has also slowed the shit out of your car. Ur blessed to have the manual 6 speed,why kill that power with those heavy ass rims I still like the car though

Couldn't agree more......way too many love to live on the band wagon.......I think they look good (definately better than many other i've seen).....the only problem is that it really highlights the missing full aspec kit...so now you really need to get your whole kit fast. If you would have already had your full kit this thing would look badass.....especially with that deep concave rear. Lastly i think the drop looks good with it because gap is minimal without tuck (ideal) and still kept a slight rake with a slightly higher gap in the rear.
