I'm dying to see what these look like when they're finally mounted on... Photoshop only does so much

 

I'm going to be picking up a set right around the first part of next year.

They'll be going to to a TEIN coilover dropped WDP.

I'll post pics as soon as I can whenever that time rolls around. I'm really curious though if anyone else has gotten them yet.

 

Not supposed to be available till first of the year I believe.

 

They have arrived and are in stock now! Here are some previews on my car, we sold a few sets, not sure if anybody has pics yet of them, possibly lurkers and such.

 

its a hard decision between legend gt and legend typeII

 

Type II.

 

^^^GTs FTW, no contest IMHO.

Ron - any full side shots? I think they'll look especially sweet on a 3G TL since they don't have any chrome trim around the windows. On the TL-S, it'll compliment the darker accents too.

Btw, they look GREAT with the your BBK

 

GT = tuner image
TypeII = luxury/style


not sure which one to choose. also TypeII 19" isn't available yet

 

the 19" Legend Type II will be here within 2-3 months, I just approived a revised 3D image of the wheel, it matches the 20" in the face view, but the profile varies pretty good. We can only manage a 1.25" lip, but the spokes do not come out past the lip in any way.

As for the Legend GT, this wheel doesn't seem to fade on me. I literally get more attention with this unique style (in my area) where most cars have the traditional light coloree wheels. I get more looks from people, and when i approach my car, I see guys scoping the car out. Odd how much the wheel color can do.

 

I agree, Mink... that's why I like the GTs for the TL-S --- the black/smoked accents, quad exhaust, etc. emphasize the sporty "look" on the Type S. On the base TL, I think you could go either way. On the S, I think the tuner style is the way to go...

Of course, that's just my take on it...

 

rondog,

is there any way i could get a custom color in place of the red stripe?

 

The lip can be custom colored pretty easilly, but I have to get my bodyshop to quote me.

Some more pics of my car...

 

Will the Legend Type II fit a 2nd gen TL?

 

Yes, 52mm offset is a perfect fit.

 

TOO ricey/tuner looking to me IMO. Its an Acura not a WRX, Civic Si, EVO, etc........

Legend II 19" with polished lip!!! IMO............................................... ......................

Tuner does not equal rice... albeit, there are a lot of "ricers" out there that give the tasteful tuners a bad name.

After seeing Ron's pics, I'm further convinced that the GTs are the way to go on your TL-S, Mink.

Nowadays, most wheels that grab my attention (tuner or lux style) are always darker themed, a la gunmetal or black. It also seems to be catching on as the "norm" rather than the trend. BMW and MB have always had options... Honda/Acura has moved its wheels in this direction (TL-S OEMs, Civic Si accessory, Accord accessory, SC Element)... and even Infiniti's accessory wheels include black chrome / dark platinum options now...

 

I getting them for Early next year, heres a photoshop i did,

 

Really need a full side pic Ron!

 

^^^Pic 6?

 

I was kind of hoping for a 3G. For somereason or another, my computer here at work never showed that series. Looks awesome with the BBK, but I think it's too much black for an NBP.

 

got any day shots with tha photochop? i was wondering wat they would look like on Anthracite

 

here's a little sumthin...

 

 

With ALL the black, the grill NEEDS to be blackened, It sticks out WAY TOO

much with SO MUCH black. It does look tough, but I still prefer a polished

lip. I don't mind black centers, as long as the wheel has a polished lip.

I vote for the Legend II 19"

got a pics of the revised version? Ive been holding out for awhile on getting wheels for my TL-S cause i have a feeling the Legend IIs are gonna be what i want!!

 

Are there any plans to offer this in 19"?

 

Those are nice, wheels, I am stuck between those in the metal graphite, and the stock S wheels. Both are sexy.

 

No, unless demand warrants it. We like to keep this wheel at 18" for its sporty nature. We do have the Legend in 19" x 8.0" for the CL, but it's in Liquid Graphite, which is a pretty stealthy wheel on it's own.

 

Heres another photochop I did for my car. I think 19's would be perfect IMO

 

If you guys really want them in 19", call in to preorder, it'll take 2 months to have em in. We need a minimum of 9 sets to have them done.

 

do you have a price range for the 19's if we could get them done?

And, any idea how much they would weigh in comparison to the 18's?
