A-Spec Wheels

After talking to a number of different Acura dealers, I am getting mixed information on these wheels. There seems to be 3 accessory wheels.

18" Sparke Silver
18" Black Chrome
18" Chrome

Are these all A-spec rims or is one in particular A-Spec and the rest are accessory. It seems like most of the A-Spec cars have the Silver on them. I saw the black chrome at the dealer and liked it, but I was wondering what the A-Spec has. If anyone has part #s or a place that has a great price, that would be awesome. I am looking to order them up soon, but I am totally confused now. Please help Anyone have any luck on Ebay?

Do a search. Someone posted a series of pics of all the A-Spec wheels in one thread.

Here's the thread.

https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/brand-new-8000k-hid-kit-%24350-109899/

I currently have the 04 Gunmetal wheels on my NBP. But the dealer is replacing with 05 wheels under warranty as I've been having issues with the 04s. Although my car is an ASpec, I am going with Silver Sparkle and not the official ASpec wheel color...I just like the Silver Sparkle color onNBP better.

I am torn on colors, but I am really digging the black chrome. Anyone have a good place to pick them up at?

Well, someone here in the photograph section has a black Aspec with the 2005 Aspec wheels (platinum/hyperblack), and it looks fantastic. I like those better than the silver sparkle because they are a little darker than the stock wheels (which, I think, are close in color to the silver sparkle wheels). I also prefer the 2005 Aspec wheel on the black car to the chrome variety since I'm not really into chrome (a little polished look is OK to me...just not the mirrored chrome look). You may want to search for those pics.

cccjoe --

You are dead on, I think the hyper black is a done deal. I am now just shopping for a good price. Most of the ones on Ebay go for around 1300 I have found one for a bit less from AOE, but I am hoping to do a little bit better...anyone have a place they reccommend? I am looking to get them ASAP. Thanks for all your help!
