SOLD!!!
Pristine condition set of 4 Volk CE28N Plus 18x9.5 in Shining Bronze Metal finish with Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 265/40R18 tires. Installed just over a month ago with approximately 1,000 miles of usage. Absolutely no curb rash, scratches or damage of any kind on the wheels, and the...
Agreed. It's definitely not great quality stuff and for what it would cost per car to use the good stuff, Honda certainly could and should have for the premium price they put on the R. I used a ceramic treatment on mine when I got it and that seems to be keeping it looking ok, but I clean it...
OK, that makes sense. I was just curious since Alcantara itself is essentially just one brand and type of synthetic microfiber fake suede and doesn't necessarily mean that any use of a synthetic microfiber is a fake version of a specific fake version of suede....
Lots of unnecessary hyperbole and emotional responses here but it seems that is the nature of many buying performance oriented cars. Everyone wants to feel like they made the best choice and everything they choose or value highly is the most important.
Honestly I think the shifter in the FL5...
Your experience agrees with mine. I feel like Honda programmed the range to show zero when it gets to 2 gallons remaining. The lack of range is a product of taking a Civic designed around engines that can get 40+mpg and building a low volume high performance car on that platform. The R engine...
Yeah it’s a Type R, but it’s a Honda Civic and not some ultra rare collectible or exotic. I assume you have insurance so just live your life and stop wasting your time, energy, money and mental stress worrying about something that has an extremely small likelihood of happening. Even if it does...
I just want to confirm what you're saying here:
You think basic cruise control that would maintain the same speed and crash into the car in front of you going 54 is better?
Adjustable following distances are somehow all the exact right space for someone to cut in front of you despite them...
Got my tires mounted and balanced yesterday and then swapped the new set on:
18x9.5 et38 Volk CE-28N Plus Shining Bronze
265/40R18 Michelin Pilot Sport AS4
I’m very happy with the results. Having 35% more sidewall will be very beneficial on the crappy roads here, especially as we get into...
I'm getting 265/40/18s mounted up on 18x9.5 et38 wheels tomorrow morning, so I'll post up some pics and give feedback on the fitment once they're on the car.
SOLD!
I must be getting old because I just installed this exhaust on Saturday, and it’s now Sunday and I’ve gone back to stock because it’s too loud for me. It’s been a while since I had a loud exhaust and I’m just not up for hearing it all the time. The tone is fantastic and it’s awesome...
It doesn’t actually say anywhere on the box, paperwork or exhaust itself, but I’m pretty sure it’s made in China. In any case the quality seems very good based on my inspection and pre assembly. The sound drove my decision to go with Tomei as I’m ok with loud and it has the tone I’m after...
Just want to give a shout out to @lmtlsauto for great service. I discussed options with them and decided to go with the 18x9.5s they had in stock. They extended the free center caps offer to those for me, and gave me the forum discount for a great deal. Shipped out within a couple hours of my...
