I understand all the concerns but it seems to have worked for me, I've had them on for a while now and I've even gotten up to speeds 120-125mph ( punching it late nights ) and I haven't had a problem...
But I do drive cautiously on a day to day basis, and I will keep attention to any vibrations of any sort.

But its weird cause i need a spacer for 17 x 7 +45mm offset Si wheels but I don't need a spacer for a 18 x 8 +55mm offset TL wheel. I guess the answer is the 1" width difference is more than the 10mm difference!

Not at all! My car is a 7gen and I have 01-03 CL-S brake set-up on my car with the 11.8" rotors and I fit these on with no spacers at all...And I think I have a good 5-10mm clearance on the wheels from the caliper.

and personally those CL-S brakes (same as the 2g TL-S ones) are still too small for my tastes

Well my OEM brakes were only 11.2" and did not stop the car good after 75mph... So I need something cheap and fast! My boy upraded his CL to brembo's so i jumped on his OEM setup since it had Crossed & Slotted rotors! Car stops much better but still want something more myself... Looking into Spoon, D2, and Wilwood

Thats a really nice look on the 7Gen Accord Sedan... I always had a hard time liking the look of the Sedan, but damn yours is nice with the wheels! Props!
I had a 7Gen Coupe (V6 6MT) and loved it... they are great cars..

; a 4 cylinder vs a AWD 6 cylinder car (yes the manual does help it save some weight, but then again you could get the v-6 accord in a manual also)to be fair, you would have to compare a V6 vs V6, with your choice of trannies the same on both of them

and also a 7th gen accord is basically a 3rd gen TL (and no mention of a 4th gen TL at all)
and when Marco mention a 2.4l, he was referring to the accord having a 4 cylinder in there (where i was saying you have to compare a comparable car, since the TL doesn't even come in a 4 cylinder to begin with, only 6 cylinders)
