Default Clean Modded ACURA TL: SEVAS , OEM kit, Lowered

Hey guys, just wanted to share some pics of a customers car. I dont see many of these cars so clean like this one, so I figured I'd post here, as I know alot of Acura guys are on this site as well.

The S22's look so much cleaner and classy in silver finish, IMO


ACURA TL
20x8.5 / 10" SEVAS S22
SILVER / CHROME LIP
LOWERED
OEM AERO KIT



If you guys need a quote on the wheels, then let me know

Looks great with the kit and mods but the staggered wheels on FWD screams poseur.

Car looks great!

I wonder how tall the car looks in person though with 22's........

The wheels sure don't look too big on the car in these pics in terms of proportions to the rest of the car.

The wheels are actually 20's (20x8.5, 20x10), not 22's. You misread the 22's from the Sevas S22 wheel brand

Even though the TL is an entry level luxury car like the ES, it is very big. The TL is as big as our GS, thus 20s don't seem out of place.

Duh! I need to have another coffee and wake up!

Yes, 20's are the perfect size.

I don't think the set up compliments the car. Maybe it is one that ya gotta see in person to appreciate.

I was thinking the same thing about the staggered wheels. It looks good overall though, still not sure about those big lips on FF. But thinking back to where that TL-S beat the G and IS, if it handles like an FR then I guess its ok for it to look like one... haha

unless your tracking your FF car, i dont see the issue with RWD offset on a daily driven vehicle. a little understeer, but other than that no problem
