Pictures of these wheels are from the CA site, but it's highly unlikely we'd get different wheels for the US. It looks like Tech, A-Spec, and Advance all get the same wheel, just with a different finish. These are ordered in Base->Tech->A-Spec->Advance
I don't know what it is with Honda, they always screw up the mags
I think they are trying to be trendy and make bold design choices. I guess they think young people like that.
Maybe I just got lucky, but my previous experience is you find the perfect Acura and the wheels are high-class-looking and acceptable (especially on upper-trims).
Yes, that is a nice 19-inch wheel design. You can get them "taste-fully darkened" like that ... or just pewter/bare-alloy like this.
It's not hard Acura.
Wheels are completely subjective. Incidentally the entry level rim something like the basic Audi 4 rim. They don't floor me, but they ar both decent. I prefer the Aspec and the Platinum Elite rims, which would be the two models I am interested in.
Ultimately I need to see them in person, but I do love my current ASpec rims.
I'd get the cheapest ones and use them as snow wheels during the winter. Honestly, they all look pretty terrible. I'd save on any wheel option and use it towards a nice set of aftermarkets.
Is this a joke? THIS is the wheel choice on the "best sport sedan in 35 years"??? Is this what the GM/Honda partnership is about? They went dumpster diving at the GM warehouse for Chevy Malibu LS wheels that have been sitting there since 2010?

Maybe they needed to further differentiate by Type-S by gimping the wheels for the 2.0T.
Evidently the fanboys here do like the wheels though, so what do I know.
Yeesh, when was the last time you drive a newer car? TPMS has been required by federal law on all new cars since 2008... :p
I buy and maintain vehicles for 2 drivers (the wife and myself). We like having both a SUV and a sedan in the garage.
I drive both, but she mainly drives her's (Accord-V6, 2014-MDX, and now the Audi-Q5e).
We traded my 1994-Accord 2-dr coupe for the 2014-MDX. I started driving the 2004 Accord-V6 (because it has low miles, runs fine, fast, etc.).
She was also was pretty excited about the 2021-TLX .
Sorry about the newbie TPMS questions. I like tires/wheels but I've never swapped them myself (I just pay technicians).
I understand now. Looks like you just need Acura sensors (and they will also fit custom wheels) and you might have to pay dealer to re-program with proprietary computer/device.
There's a half dozen or so of you supposed performance enthusiast millenials whose primary purpose on this forum is to bash the second gen TLX and the people that are interested. It's quite sad that you feel it's your mission to do so, for a brand you clearly won't be purchasing. Imagine the nerve of some people on this forum actually liking Acura and perhaps being happy with what they have, understanding that perfection doesn't exist.
We are all entitled to our opinions, but please understand that your smug opinions mean squat to the vast majority of car buyers out there. I'd suggest that you wait until you see and drive the vehicle, but we know that you are unlikely to let a potentially positive experience inform a good bashing.

Actually thats one of the functions of this forum, just too bad someone had to do a superiority dance to provide the information.

. That's almost unheard of, with the exception of the new NSX.
