Good review. But 16 inchers for the Type S that aren't even any wider or of a lower profile than the base car???? C'mon Acura... I know 50% of the kids that buy this car are just gonna get aftermarket 18s, but please. Some things are inexcusable!!!

Putting 17s would make that thing slower. When I upgraded from my 15s to my 17s, I noteced a big difference in performance.
