a-spec wheels
Think I may just go ahead and replace my 07 TLS wheels with some a-spec or ronjon wheels. Is there anyone that you can purchase the a-spec wheels from other than Acura for a better price?
A-Spec Wheels
When I was getting new tires I found out that one of my A-Spec wheels was bend and unfixable. Discount tire quoted me a price of $250 per wheel, which was the lowest around. The dealership was $379 so it was a no brainer for me. Turns out that those wheels are made by Enkei (sp?) for Honda/Acura in Japan so that is how they can get them for so much cheaper. The wheels do not come with the center logo piece so that must be ordered from somewhere else. There are several different wheel colors available and if you have a pearl white car, like mine, the gun metal wheels look great. Good luck.

I checked with tire rack, but didn't think about discount tire. Wonder where I could get a center cap w/ acura logo that would work? Mine is alabaster silver, and I'm thinking either silver or chrome. Don't really want too much shine, guess I'll figure that out later. Do you remember the size and offset? Is it like 18 X18.5 w/ 45 mm offset? Thanks for your help!

I am not sure where you can get the center cap but I am sure that the dealership can it as a last resort. My wheels at 18 x 8.5, I have heard, don't quote me on this, but my understanding is that the new wheels that look just like that are actually only 18x8 and that you need to order the 2004 wheels to get that other half inch. Also if you get the 18x8.5 make sure your tires are 245/40 18s at least otherwise it wont fit the wheel right. It comes stock with 235/40 18s and that is NOT a big enough tire. As far as the offset goes I am sure that it is standard or factory preset because the wheel I ordered fits perfectly.
The center caps from your TL-S wheels should fit the A-Spec wheels. I've bought Acura center caps on eBay really cheap too.

I've bought a set of these for about $30 including shipping.
