Ebay Aspec rims w/tires $844 - Any good?
Hey everyone,
Im new to the TL scene and i keep tossing up the idea of getting a set of aspecs. I found these on ebay and they seem like a great deal with new tires. Tires alone from tirerack are ~$450ish.
Are these replicas maybe? or am i missing something with these wheels?

Don't know what those are, but they are not TL A-Spec wheels.
A-Spec wheels (for the TL) are 18 x 8 or, in one case, 18 x 8.5. Both come in 45mm Offset.
What you listed are 18 x 7.5 and 55mm offset.
Maybe OE for an RSX or TSX or something or maybe just plain fakes.
Edit, yeah, those are "replicas" of some sort. Notice they don't actually say they are an OE wheel? Also:
Your car isn't listed for fitment.

They seem too cheap to be true (includes tires).
So I'm guessing they're fake, too.
The TSX A-Spec rims are 17" x 7.5", and those listed are 18"x 7.5"...

Thanks for that info. What is the stock 04-06 TL 17" rim width? I picked up a set a type s wheels to try and go for the type s look but keep looking at the aspec rims. Would i really notice a difference between the 7.5" and 8" rim width?
