I think I am going to go ahead and order a set of 08W18-SEP-200E (06 A-Spec ones/ the ones you recieved), actually if i ordered 08W18-SEP-200B ($104 cheaper), could I transfer over my TPMSs from my stock rims?

yes....but it would take some doing. the rims are NOT prepared with the larger hole for the TPMS system. I have heard of people getting around this....dont remember how though...I think they used aftermarket TMPS sensors or something like this....BUT...in the end as I recall...it was just easier to order the correct rims. You can use these rims and NOT have TPMS...but then your mid would toss a tire pressure prob all the time...if you dont mind not paying attention to this....its not a big deal...there are those that have done this. Personally...I would just get the right rim.

Actually you can just transfer over the TPMS that Acura makes to an 04 or 05 rim. The reason I know is because the wrong rims that Delray Acura sent me were 05's and I originally put the sensors on them and they worked perfectly. They were of the Sparkling Silver finish.
