Default New winter wheels

The wheels are the factory 17" 2005 Acura TL wheels. I think they look pretty good. Just need a lil more offset in the rear.

Comments would be nice whether it be good or bad, Thanks for your input everyone.I love this forum.

Not feeling the Highbeams and fogs. Wheels are good for winter I guess but I thought it was spring

Isn't it April? My friend is just about to put his summer wheels on.

Either way they look good for winter wheels.

The wheels look like they fit pretty well on there. Did you have to modify any part of the wheel or they fit perfectly on the hubs?

SC looks great on 5spoke rims, but for me i do not like the yellow highs and fogs, i never understood the color yellow.
