How come they didn't send you the rim-specific lugs in the first place? Mine came with the rims. Those are smaller than the factory ones. You need a special extension to bolt/unbolt the lugs.

I called AKTUSA about my Altstadts and they said that if they needed special lugs, they would come with the rims. I put a rim on today to check the stock lugs and they fit, but the holes are so deep that I want to buy longer ones.
Nate E-mailed about the lugs and I was worried that would delay me even more. Anyone have Gorilla Lugs?

Yo Vic, sorry to hear about that man. I was there today with Bigmonkey70 when you got that little problem with your rims. Hope they send you the right lugs tomorrow.
BTW, those Kobe's were blinging! http://www.acura-tl.com/ubb/biggrin.gif ------------------ Binh http://planettribes.com/havoc/ac/blackshadow.jpg |
You should be able to buy lugs at your local auto parts. I wouldn't use the stock lugs, even if they did fit. Maybe just to go to the auto parts. http://www.acura-tl.com/ubb/smile.gif

yah, Vic, Sorry to hear that man.
I was there. The rim looks phat as hell. Too bad i can't see it install on ur TL |
its all good i ended up waitng til today and got them on they look sweet but only one problem i get this little rubbing sound coming from the rear passenger wheel. anyone know why?

What are your specs again? Probably the piece under the fender on the bumper cover.
