you can, but not exactly the easiest to do though, it is more then just the exhaust and such

look up the bolt pattern for those wheels/vehicles, but also offset, and the width

also don't forget about the centerbore also


stock 3g tl is 5x114.3 or 5x4.5, then offset is about 50mm (it is a little forgiving)


then the centerbore is around 64.1 or so, so needs to be larger or same sized on those wheels you want

also 2g tl's, should be selling my stock spoiler soon, i'm upgrading so pm me if interested, prefer local first


also is foam filled to help prevent those rattles, just needs painted due to me getting a little of the foam on the paint itself , but nobody else has a nbp 2g, so it needs painted to match anyways

Whats Up Mile High Acura Owners?
Im planning on buying a 3rd Gen Tl real soon. Ive been in love with them since the first time I seen one on the road. I test drove one last week and it was GREAT. One question I have is, would insurance be higher on the Type-S than the base?

Thanks

I think the Type-S(sport) would be classified under a Sports Sedan and therefore your insurance will try to pull down your panties....

But I really don't know.

That makes sense, I'll have a clean driving record come this Nov, hopefully I can get some discounts and lower the rate if I plan on getting the Type-S.

bigger motor, so more in insurance, due to being faster, and higher risk

Im debating between that and the white one. The car that i have now is a Metallic Black and it shines REAL good when its washed and waxed but man, I just dont have the time to do all that every week, I know it sounds bad but sometimes its a lot work and my car looks horrible when its dirty, the dirt stands out lol
