so subjective...what do YOU like better?

Everyone has aspec...get some tsw's to switch it up. also...i think we'll all agree that a drop is the MOST important thing.

My vote is A-spec, but I agree with rockstar143. I just got A-spec wheels for my TL-S and although I love them, I wish I would have done a drop first...

My S rims are beat up from previous owner. I was looking at ronjon legends but don't really want a 19" rim

I was looking at caldwells which brought me here and I like them better than a-spec because
1: they have a lip
2: i don't want to copy a-spec

I say TSW's they are good rims and have been around for quite a while.

AckTL05 is a vendor here that sells them. Go to the Vendor's link in the top right of the forum or pm him. He also has a thread somewhere in the 3G forum regarding his wheels.



Eh... here you go https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...1#post12659172

Yeah I noticed that. I really want a lip though.

I will be contacting you before buying to ask some questions most likely.

If I spend money money it won't be for a factory wheel thats for sure.

I don't get that logic at all. But hey, it's whatever you want.

Its easy logic. I won't spend 2 grand on a set of factory wheels that are IMO played out.

Anyway I talked to discount tire about some prices on tires and was getting a quote on the TSW Cadwell's and they will NOT fit the Brembo brakes in the 18" and 19" version but will in the 20" versions.

So won't be going that route.
