well im looking to do a few mods to the tsx but just figured i would get some opinions on here. prlly going to do factory body kit, wheels and springs or coils not sure which yet. i dont really know about coils because i dont want to ruin the ride of the car but im sure the big wheels will if the suspension dosent. first question for everyone is in regards to the tsx and its size are 20" wheels too big for it? it has a really high rear quarter to window that makes it look like they would fit well, i have seen 19’s look small on these cars just not sure yet. im going for the oem+ look here is the current look of the car ( all stock ) ![http://3-photos2.ebizautos.com/used-2009-acura-tsx-technologypackage-1770-8278111-19-640.jpg](http://3-photos2.ebizautos.com/used-2009-acura-tsx-technologypackage-1770-8278111-19-640.jpg) here are some examples these are 20’s ![http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0110-1.jpg](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0110-1.jpg) ![http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0111-1.jpg](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0111-1.jpg) ![http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0112.jpg](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0112.jpg) ![http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0117-1.jpg](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0117-1.jpg) ![http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0115-1.jpg](http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y15/civiclvr/IMAG0115-1.jpg) another 20" wheels which i love the oem + look of ![http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7182/7138288175_556ee45c09_o.jpg](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7182/7138288175_556ee45c09_o.jpg) these are 19’s ![http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2154-user246233-pic17790-1248556721.jpg](http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2154-user246233-pic17790-1248556721.jpg) ![http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2152-user246233-pic17788-1248556721.jpg](http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2152-user246233-pic17788-1248556721.jpg) ![http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2153-user246233-pic17789-1248556721.jpg](http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2153-user246233-pic17789-1248556721.jpg) ![http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2155-user246233-pic17792-1248557139.jpg](http://tsxclub.com/forums/members/scooterb84-albums-tsx-2009-pmm-w-tech-package-picture2155-user246233-pic17792-1248557139.jpg)[/QUOTE] ---

start by getting rid of the stock grille. No idea what acura’s design department was thinking when they came up with that. Shit belongs on an Aztek. ---

i actually dont mind the stock grill, i guess it takes getting used to. i have plans for a tune to up the gas mileage even more and give the car a bit more pep and the more and more i look at 20" wheels on this car the more i feel certain that they fit great. ---
