8"
There was never a 7.5" for the TL.
if you're inquiring about the A-Spec wheels, they made a 8.5" A-Spec in 2004, later years were made in 8".
So all stock wheels were 17x8 +45.
A-Spec (2004) was 18x8.5 +45.
A-Spec (after 04) was 18x8 +45.
There was never a 7.5" for the TL.

8.5" A-Specs were only available in 2004. Occassionally you will see them for sale in the Black Market here on AZ. However they are very rare and become more so the further from 2004 we get.

recently powdercoated so its not all banged up like 90% of aspec wheels, its actually in mint condition

As I mentioned above -

They look like they are in decent (not perfect) shape in the pix and the price seems pretty good as well.
