It's without hope here in Europe. Not even Honda dealerships prob won't have these machines. But imagine going to general tire change garages. They have stone age equipment compared to this one. If I decide to have winter tires I'll get a second set of wheels.

I personally will go to a dealership that has that machine, there's no way In hell I'd have new tire's installed & accept my car back with F'ed up wheels. I'd be so pissed , they'd have to get me new wheels. But some people won't give a crap , if that's the case , this car isn't for them.

Only got one dealer and they won't mount tires they don't sell. And we all know what they charge for tires. Next closest dealer hour and half away

Hell yeah , if they have a machine , that will be a fun road trip in a type r.. I'd just order tire's from tire rack , toss some protection over the seats & trunk , load them things up & off I'd go.

Can't you have them delivered to a dealership or shop that has the machine?

Make sure you guys take a video/pictures of your rims before you change out your tires. Going to be a lot of damaged rims out there and the shops are going to say they were like that to begin with.

Agreed !! You'll go in with perfect rims & leave with some major damage done.. it's a no brainer to just find a shop that has that machine
