Exclamation Will 17's fit on Acura 3.2 Tl?

If so does it mess anything up like suspension or speedometer? What did you do with your old wheels? The Acura dealership said they wont buy them back...

Please help

The only reason I asked that was b/c I talked to the Acura dealership and they told me not to do it and it would not work and could cause damage to the car.

I forgot to add. Is there anything that I need to do other than take the 16's off and put on the 17's? Should I take it somewhere and have them calibrate the speedometer and odometer. Sorry for the lack of expertise on the topic.

I am assuming you got the regular 2002 TL and not the type-S, hence the 16" wheel question.

FYI, the TL-S comes with 17" wheels so that alone should answer your question.

There are numerous people rolling around in 17s, 18s, 19s, and even 20s.

BTW, why would you care if the speedometer is off like a few mph? Just enjoy your ride with nice rims!

Leave my OEM tires/rims alone. It is still winter so I don't want to mess up my chromies.:wow:

How are your 16s?
