Same story with the Acura RDX. The top of the line Advance level (like Honda's Elite) got the worst looking wheels. Doesn't make any sense to me.

Here’s just my theory and I’ve seen it with the ford trucks I’ve owned also. They put these wheels on knowing these owners will probably buy aftermarket or another oem rim. The current set either goes to the dealer whom will sell at a profit or the smart owner will sell them outright. Dealer takeoff rims are huge profit center on eBay selling rims the customer already paid for!
