I have the stocks on with some Goodyear Eagle GT tires on. I'm contemplating getting a set of 07-08 Type S Carbon colored OEM wheels. I've seen them jumping off for about $1100 + tax. Opinions? I don't have a current picture of my car but it's Nighthawk Black with dark shaded windows. I wanna stay stock size on wheels so that I keep my tires.

just be patient and find a good deal on a used set. you can get a used set without tires for 700 or so. maybe less if you find a good deal . and fyi enkei ekm3 are on a great sale right now, just had my local discount tire order me a set for 160 per wheel in 18x8, its similar style as type s

Looking to buy me some for 06 TL but haven't got a quote from the dealer yet expected to get raped by them.
Probably the dealer will force me to go buy aftermarket rims rather the cool waffle ones.

$1100 + core + tax at Acura of Lynnwood.

came from the dealer cost of the 08 rims $633 each plus tax i almost laughed told him forget it. Asked about oem for 06 $330 each total rape.

Went to the wrecker they only had 4 rough for $100 each but refinishing them would be $250 each plus tax..

Even after market for 17" 8" wide with five spoke similar to oem didn't have any at wheel tire store..

Couple weeks gotta change over my winters and can't find any that's any good..

be patient and get something different...a lot of options that won't break the bank and will leave you looking...NOT STOCK!

Thanks, but i may buy some replicas on ebay for $590 price ain't bad and will delivered in couple weeks perfect timing.
Some stores on ebay wheelsandcaps and tabacco road auto sells 5 star rims some 04 TL type and others 07/08 tl style rims.
These are not oem rims but year warranty for paint after that if the paint peels i may just get them refinished for another $600 still come out ahead versus dealer prices.

Now i need to find 4 TPMS seen tirerack has them for $120 i doubt they would only sell sensors alone without rims.
Best price i get from honda and acura dealer for TPMS part# 06421-S3V-A03 is $52 plus tax around $58.76 each total $235.04 maybe some ebay seller i can get it for $180?

What do you think is it a risky to buy stock replicas if i can't find aftermarket wheels that look decent?
