Just my I dont like them. Not open enough. Petro Vengence, Axis Penta, TSW Carthage, TSW Stowe, ACE Strada, and a few others sell much cheaper high quality 1 piece wheels that fit all TL's with or without BBK Brembo's. Checkout WHEELDIRECT ONLINE is awesome. I called WHEELSNEXT about the AXIS SHINE wheels, and they said AXIS doesnt sell them anymore...WRONG !!! WHEELDIRECT ONLINE SAID AXIS still sells the AXIS SHINE, but is back ordered until Feb 2012.

Please checkout WHEELSDIRECT ONLINE.COM.
Awesome people who KNOW what they are talking about.

WHEELSNEXT SUCK IN MY OPINION

Are you high?

BBS Super RS is a forged 2 piece wheel.... has nothing to do with 1 piece wheels like Axis....

would look good on a Civic or a Teg, on a TL they're waaaaayyyy too "busy" to be pulled off. now, if you were talking about LM's....well then that's a whole different story.

Very few imports can rock them and the TL isn't one of them.

the TL can pull off the BBS RS, but it needs to be a really aggressive offset with a good slam since i dont think the RS's were even offered in 18 or 19. that photoshop isnt a really good representation of what a TL would look like on the RS

jay - your car is ridiculous!

Yea that's my car on stance works. Both times!

Contact wheel flip they can turn bbs rs 17" face to a 18" or 19" wheel easy. If you really want to go that route.... I've seen them turn mugen m7 to 18" wheel.

BBS Super RS came in 18's. You can have custom lips for the RS made is fit the 17 inch faces (34 bolt lips) and also have Riotform build custom barrels for 18's. It's a long way around reaching 18's but the Super RS are big money. One could easily drop $1200 on some damaged RS 17's and refinish them into something great.

I have BB RS 17's 8.5 and 10.5 front and rear. Looking to change the fronts to 9.0 and they have a high 20's offset. I can't wait.
