Vossen Wheels for 2012 TL

Hey guys,

So I have been looking around here for a little bit hoping to come across some nice wheels for my 2012 TL. I did some looking on my own and I cam across these. Let me know what you guys think.

if i go this route i will be doing Tein SS coilovers and 20MM spacers in the from and 25MM in the rear.

theyre good looking wheels, but they are heavy and really expensive for being cast wheels. i was considering them but many people dont recommend them.

haha yes it is photo shopped, but i did not just do that. like i said i was also considering these wheels and i did it to get an idea. I must say they look good but im not sure if i want to lose performance.

While I think they look awesome on the black coupe, there is a member here with a 4G that has them and they're not as appealing on a 4G.


And I'll leave it at that out of respect for said member~

I'm in love with those wheels...that said, it looks better on the 8th gen than the TL but might just be the quick chop.

I'm more of a fan of their vvcsv1 than the v3's but I still dig em both.

Get em!

I dont think they will fit our 4G if you go staggered, The rear has a 10.5 Width.

have to go non staggered, which is sorta yuck. its an aggresive setup already with 9.5.. aggresive for my taste at least ATM.

The tires look stretched. Is a slightly narrower wheel width not available ?

its crazy i called vossen last week to ask about these wheels for my '12 aswell and he said 10.5 in the rear would b a problem so u are def gonna have to roll and pull fenders otherwise the back is gonna b an issue.there a blue 8th gen accord with 10.5 all around but i heard he did a lot of mods and it rides real bad..good choice but good luck

I was also considering Vossen VVSC1s for my 2012 AWD. The weight to me (as I've mentioned in other threads) is a big issue. Very heavy wheels. At the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference. Is it about the "bling factor" or performance. TSW makes nice wheels (Interlagos for example) that are also light.

he's in South Florida, it does look beautiful, but he looks like he had some serious fender work done to make it work AND had to run a narrow tire.

Just remember that the concave face only comes in 10-10.5" which will pretty aggressive for the TL in the Rear. The spoke on the 9" wheels do not have convcave so keep that in mind. I can weight a wheel for you if you wish. Let me know.
