18" OEM Wheels?

Hello 3G, my 08 is still riding on the base 17s. For a while now I've wanted to upsize to 18s.

I'd prefer an OEM, Acura-branded wheel, and would also prefer to avoid the Type S wheels (so as not to try and imitate one).

Are there OEM 18s that fit our bolt pattern and can be put on without too much trouble - without spacers? Thanks in advance for your recommendations.

P.S. Are ACURAZINE.com stickers available now?

Yes, there are numerous wheels will fit; pretty much any 18" wheel from a recent (say within 10 to 15 years) Honda or Acura wheel will fit. FWIW, the Type-S wheels were the same 17" size as is on your car. To the best of my knowledge, the only OEM 18" wheels intended directly for the 3G TL were the A-Spec wheels.

Thanks! I don't suppose there is such a thing as an OEM wheel catalog for Acura?

There are several (3 version) OEM 18" wheel to choose from for 3g TL, the Aspec just happened to be the most common one. All the OEM 115x5 pattern 18" wheel is bolt direct fit onto the car without any spacer. No dealer have catalog for the wheel because the car is now 10+ years old.

2nd gen MDX, 4th gen TL and 2nd RL wheel won't fit our TL.

I have seen the accord sport wheels on the 3G and i don't like it, perhaps because there is no concave to these wheels. wheels kinda look cheap and aftermarket
