Thanks for the positive feedback, i know a lot of people here like smaller wheels and think 19s look 'big'. lol. I don't respect teen-inch aftermarket wheels on midsize and larger cars, with only a few exceptions I've seen that look good on this website. Its funny most people won't go larger until the manufacturers start offering larger sizes; followers. And, some think silver is the only proper finish for wheels, its clean i've done silver OZ's in the past....anyway, whatever you think looks good to you.
Offset is 40mm. Ride is very smooth, almost same as stock was on Michelins. Wheels don't feel much heavier, they are lightweight forged. No vibrations. No rubbing. I ordered a Comptech RSB...

well i checked out your thread to see your car. overall impression: mixed. points for creativity. i think that there is such a thing as over-doing modifications and you passed that point a long time ago. The lens corners and grill blend well with the car. 
I'm not a big fan of ron john wheels, sorry ron dogg, 
but i give him credit for focusing on a neglected market. Your interior trim is overthetop. Overall i think your car looks a little immature for my tastes, but its a free country. Enjoy and keeping doing you. and, God Bless

Only in America.Later Lokius and thanks for the reply.

I could have said alot more man. check out the other threads of people with HUGE chrome wheels, people arent very nice. I was trying to give you a compliment. I said it looks good and they are pretty cool. I think my car is simple, wheels and lowering, white car with blacked out exterior lights. It's been done before, the 3rd gen tl on 20 inch 20 spoke wheels hasnt, so I give you credit for being cretive.

E-mail the sales dept on the webpage (sales@modularewheels.com) and let them know TWENTIES from Acura-tl.com referred you and they will hook you up. If enough people are interested I can arrange a group buy with the owner.

. I don't think Lokius was trying to flame on your ride, he was just saying for the look your going for it looks good. He's just not into that kind of a look. Most of the members on this form are more into the tuner look than say a Dub/chrome look. I'm a chrome man myself, maybe we should start a thread with TL's with 20's, and see how many we get.

Hey, Twenties quick question for you. Did you have to use spacers for your back wheels? I just ordered a set of TSW Thruxtion 20x8.5 with a 38 offset with Falken Azenis 245/35/20 and was told that I need spacers for the back because the rim or the tires would rub for some reason. I'm guess the fender well is a small or something.

lol, spacers will make a slightly rubbing wheel poke out more and rub even more.

I have no clue but thats what the shop I ordered my rims from said that I need spacers to make rims not scrub in the back for some reason. I guess I'll ask them again why I need those spacers.

Cool just making sure if I really needed them or not. I guess I'm going to tell them put the rims on first without doign the spacers and go from there. Thanks guys....
