i hear ya on the black wheels. definitely isn't a permanent look i would like to do. but with plasti dip you can try a color out and if you don't like or get tired up of it, just pull it off. its hard to beat that.

YES - RSX rims will fit.

Good choice if you are looking for a true Upgrade. These are wider, lighter, and way better looking than your 16"s
You can fit Wider tires on these bad boys. Probably their best feature.
PS: I'm following your 16"vs 18" rims and these are a good choice for 16"s

BUT, I want you to find some 18" b/c they would look good and I want to see.

Take the handle of a screwdriver and hit the back of the center cap to pop it out. Do the same to your pilot wheels center caps. Push the pilot caps onto the Tl wheels. done.

Wow, those do look great on your car. and your car is similar to mine (color , year, etc) so i can really get an idea of what it will look like. yours looks to be lowered a little bit, right? .... sometimes i think about taking the tint off my back 3 windows. yours does look nice

so if i buy these TL wheels i should be able to just swap the caps?!? ... too easy. I plan on selling my wheels too. so i guess the next people will have to get acura labeled pilot wheels. lol.

thanks alot for the input.

Hi, i just checked out Tim's. those are exaclty like these, but i think these ones i'm looking at have some decent tire life left (haven't looked at them in person yet; probably this weekend). ... also TIms just sold a couple days ago. and i just live a couple hours north of him, so that wouldve been tempting. lol

Thanks for the info Dreamin.

That's not my car. Don't take your tint off just the back three, unless your front two aren't tinted.

No, those wheels are jacked. They're not worth half that. get the TL wheels already and be done!

obviously i wouldnt take tint off the back 3 if i had the front 2 tinted . .... in California its illegal to tint the front 2. ...

and i think your right on the wheels. the guy wants 450 for the wheels /tires. but it sounds like the tires are in good shape. i am trying to get him down to 300. stay tuned.

Psh...in PA and many states over here in the NE it's illegal to tint ANY window. Doesn't mean we all don't do it though!
