Tough decision: 8.5 A-spec vs WedsSport sa55m

Hey Azine! I'm new here, I recently bought a 08 TLS from a forum member here. Here's the link if anyone is curious: https://acurazine.com/forums/member-...kee-wi-920367/

But I'm stuck with a conundrum here. I have a set of 8.5 aspecs, but I'm thinking I want a different set of wheel. I'm thinking WedsSport SA55M with the blue accents in 18x9 +36, and selling the A-specs.

So two questions: Should I? and will they fit?

18x9 +36 should fit no problem, and are a considerable weight reduction from the A-Specs. Its really up to you - do you want a performance wheel or are you more interested in looks? I mean personally I think the SA55M looks amazing, and if you've got the cash for em, go right ahead

Thanks! I'm looking for more performance than looks. I would love some ADVAN RS's but damn are those things pricey.

Dump the A-Spec's and get the Weds. If I'm not mistaken Weds just dropped some new wheels this year.

Advans? Did you read the title or the post?

OP, both sets will look fantastic on your TL! I'm a bit partial to A-Specs but I love those Weds too. Keep the A-Specs and get the Weds too

LOL!!! They are pretty heavy, had me poop squatting trying to pick them up. If I had the money I would rock the ADVAN's all day!!!!! I saw a member on here with a white TLS with the ADVAN RS's and it was insta-b0ner!

You know, I thought about keeping the A-specs and using them for winter but 18" Blizzaks are so expensive. That and I have a set of TLS waffles with brand new Blizzaks. It is tempting though, I too love those damn A-specs.
