Any TLs out there with CLASSY aftermarket custom wheels?
Any TLs out there with CLASSY aftermarket custom 'deeper' lipped wheels? More interested in seeing the HRE 540 style, 549.. that type.. Not the 'pimp' type like I have seen other places.. eeks.. money can't buy taste that's for sure.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Kbucker.
I love your comment about the anti "pimp look". Here's my GDP/5AT/NAV.TL.
The wheels are MSR 183 Tech 17". We uped the rim size to 8.5". With the gold package and the gold centers on the wheels ,I 've had a huge number of compliments.....hey! I'm happy!!

I am not kidding about your demographics. Acura=value, the strongest reason for purchase. So I seriously doubt any TLers throwing 4 or 5k wheels on their TL. Of course they would throw something that looks like I-forged or HRE on there.
Before you think I am bashing, let me link the only pics and probably only pics of a TL with HREs.

Shoot just look at the posts. "I want lips". "I'm going staggered". "I'm getting a 9" wide wheel". All wannabe RWD attributes.

I completely agree with you about the "staggered" rim set up. I wonder if people know why RWD cars have it, and why it doesn't make any sense on a FWD car.

Anybody have 19 maido st5 or falken koblenz on their tl? If not does anyone have 19's with comptech or other springs and 35 or 36 mm offset wheel? I've read on here others talking about these wheels but haven't seen that anyone has gotten them. Both companies say they fit the auto w/out brembos but it seems it would be close based on what offsets everyone else has been calling for. I think they look high performance (when not chrome), have a deep lip, and don't scream pimp.
