TLX Ryan

Had the car for nearly 4 months now and I love everything about it (minus the transmission which sucks at times). Slapped some Michelin X-Ice tires on the stock 18” wheels and with the AWD its pretty much unstoppable in winter conditions, huge improvement over my previous FWD Civic or FWD Element. Being in Canada, winter pretty much sucks as the car has been dirty basically since the day I picked it up however with spring just around the corner I’ve starting piecing together some OEM parts. I have an S2000 (lowered with wheels) and a Civic hatchback (not stock at all) so the TLX is my daily/winter car so not going crazy with the mods this time around.

Plan is as follows:

Tinted Windows [installed]
OEM Acura Winter Floor Mats [intalled]
OEM Acura Trunk Liner [installed]
OEM Acura Optional 19” Diamond Cut wheels, 19x8+50
Michelin Pilot Sport AS3 tires, 245/40/19
OEM Acura Optional lip kit
H&R Sport Springs
Wheels Spacers

Not really sure how much spacing out the wheels will need, fronts might be ok but rears definitely need a spacer. I have some +25mm spacers that I’m going to try but that might be too much, might only need 10-15mm. If anyone has added spacers to their stock wheels please post up pictures for reference.

Also is anyone aware of any coilovers being developed for the TLX as I would prefer coils (not interested in D2 or RSR) over the springs.

Other than that going to keep this car fairly stock hah, famous last words.

Day I picked the car up:


My brother also owns a TLX... so two in the house.


And the Diamond Cut wheels that just showed up the other day:




And the S2k and Civic:






Will have some updates in the coming months once the snow goes away.

Fresh looking cars!

Finally got the 19" Diamond Cut wheels mounted up. They look really good in person and the Michelin AS3 tires are a massive improvement from the stock OEM tires and the Michelin X-Ice winters that were on the car previously.


My brothers black TLX is in the background. He also has the 19" optional wheels.





And pulled the race car out of storage. TLX creeping in the background.
