The 03 rims are so much hotter, TSX rims fit it as well

CL-S wheels are VERY MUCH > the normal CL wheels. Those CL wheels look better on a TL anyways. I don't think they flatter the normal CL's shape at all.

Yeah tough call, I like both. The 5-spoke just seems so clean to me. But the spokes are almost TOO thick.

The 01-02 wheels get curb checked pretty easy. The wheel face sticks out a bit past the tire.

That is a bland-looking car.

I think the 2003 wheels look better but would take longer to clean if that matters. I have had two cars with wheels even worse than that and both of them required more time to clean the wheels than the rest of the car. For some, that might be worth it but not for me.
