Thanks - this is the final version... do you like it better?:

My car already drifts right, and I've had alignment performed several times. I finally chalked it up to radial tire pull, which is annoying but comes with the territory of owning performance tires, I guess.
Now that the suspension is installed, it still pulls right.

Not yet. I am going to chicago this weekend - when I get back I plan to have the car detailed so I will take some pics after that. It needs a thorough cleaning inside and out.

My pull has gone away now. I have that damned vibration around 50mph though. Oh well - it isn't bad. I hope it doesnt get worse - just because of all the stuff I put on after I bought the car. (a-spec, wheels, tints - soon, door sills - soon, laser shifter, fm modulator for mp3 player...etc etc)
and Lore - why not get the tires swapped out under warranty?

Sorry dude

No new pics, sorry.
Shibby: If you want to keep your speedometer accurate then you want 235/40/18. Otherwise you could probably go to 245/40/18 and your speedo will be off a little bit.
Which wheels? The RonJons or the A-spec ones? I am selling my RJ wheels - PM me or check the buy/sell section under off topic.

nice pix man, i still cant decide if i wanna go with 19s or just the aspec, but i'll keep this in mind, 19s will slow me down offcrouse and 18s is the idle size for looks and prefromance

Vikrampatel, do you feel the standard 235/40/18 tires on your silver sparkles provide protection against curbbing/scrapes?
The theory is that Acura went from an 18x8.5" wheel in 04 to the 18x8" in 05 because of the tire fit and lack of protection. Thanks.

No. I already curbed my front drivers wheel, although, no tire coudl have protected against that one. It was pure stupidity on my part - going through the drive thru of the bank when I knew I would damage that wheel. Never fails. On the other hand, the rear pass side I scraped slightly, but I have no idea how. It is better than the 18*8.5 wheels, but still not enough.
If/when I need new wheels, I am going to go to 17" wheels because the 18" are easily bent with the pot holes around here. At least thats how I feel about it. I tend to wonder if the new a-spec wheels for the TSX will fit the TL (17", same design as our a-spec wheels)
