bro if i were you i'd just keep the stock rims for a while. They are nice looking rims...

But if ya really gotta get some wheels, get 17x8 or 18x8 Caffeines. Mine are only 19.9 pounds each, and they are cheep.

I'm not feeling either set. I say hold out until you find something nicer. Your 2k2 max deserves it.

The Kosei RT Penta is a FAR superior wheel to the Velox wheels in the first post. I'd go RT Penta all the way. Light, strong, and good looking. I don't like those Velox at all, and that statement about them going for $300/wheel retail is BS, more like $200.

i am not liking either plus the fact that they are 18x7.5 and not 18x8, it does make a difference. Save up for some nice light rims, your gonna be getting a size larger anyways from stock so they are gonna be about the same.

amen to that. Also like someone else said a 47 offset, my god you dont drive a acura tl. You need a nice two piece 19x8 inch wheel under 20 lbs. Sounds like you need a blitz technospeed or a dronell/d power wheel. For tires I recommend the toyo t1-s proxes.
