Can you give up the info on the tires and rims. I am looking to replace the tires on my two R's. Those look like a good set of tires. You putting them on new rims?

This week I got the HKS Legamax, PRL intake, Acuity shift knob installed. Disconnected the fake noise and also added some sound deadening under the rear seats also. Will make an exhaust video soon when it's not snowing...

Thank you for sharing a wide variety of mods that uniquely define your taste. Certainly a very unusual headliner by USA standards.

As noted in mod list above, this site has very unusual decorative products for cars:

SPINNYWHOOSH

Not close at all, it's much bassier and has a nice growl to it. It's not way too loud but then again this is my first exhaust with the Type R so I only know of this and stock.
Lol when you mod the R...it gets louder... when you tune it after with OTS maps it gets quieter... when you have full bolt ons with tune ....it gets super loud and drone is abundant even with awe exh. Just fyi.. if you like quite....dont go downpipe even with cat.

In the purely REDiculous eye candy category, added pulsed intensity (5 sec cycle) glowing Honda mirror thresholds.

These silly things attach to car with neomagnets and are removable for USB recharge. You can change to 8 different colors, one is a lame mix.

Of course mine are set to Really Rally RED!

Not that anyone is asking but I don’t recommend seller via FB. They charged almost $10 more than PayPal total that included tax (from China vendor? BS) then added a charge the claim is state tax at 2x/rate. Got half the order today, no shipping info on other pair for back row. Opened case w/PayPal for the $9.47, this is a common trick by overseas cheaters.

A month after DIY ceramic (Armor Shield IX) I found a pair of gloss enhancers that took it up a notch, adding a top coat of protection over the glass layer, highly recommended.
?? SHOWTIME!

Got my HiRev tails installed, makes the whole rear look different. Bumper reflectors will go in once I get the diffuser and do it all at once, but it can't be soon enough ?

This install is so easy, made such a difference on hook and book, and is definitely a best bang for your buck. 70A material, save your other motor mounts life span, 500 miles later and they only vibrate on start up.
