@artofattack has it.

Installed my HPS CAI that I got on a Black Friday sale.

If you’re going to re-use the stock continentals, I don’t agree with what you say. Their sidewall is rounded compared to other brands like Federal, Yokohama, etc. It’s best to use at least 245 tire width for an 8.5 inch wide rim.

This is what Costco recommended me to fill my tires with.

Most aftermarket rims uses conical/acorn lug nuts as using the OEM lug nuts will not properly seat in and will damage the rim.

I have it on my hatch using 245/40/18. No problems with grip. Only downside that I have is less gas mileage from the stock continentals which is true since it’s a UHP AS tire.

The one’s from the Si are Enkei and the one’s from the sport hatch and sedan is just stamped Honda made in Thailand.

If it’s your parents car and they’ve given you consent on what parts you can install, then go ahead. Make sure that you just don’t go over the top and make sure it’s still okay with them when they drive it. A simple drop-in filter and some headlight bulb upgrade (if halogen) with interior LED...

I used plastic before but switched to alloy.

I would just get him a PRL stage 1 intake with that budget.

Get a Ktuner.

@NomaR-06 yoi’re better off with the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions ceramic product.

Get a CAI to have better power and throttle response compared to the stage 1 intake.

@bbeem 8.5 width

My wheels have an offset of +44mm. Would even look better if I used 37 or 38mm offset. Springs are Eibach Prokit.

A lighter set of wheels will definitely help with acceleration, handling, and MPG (if you’ll use grand touring tires).

I would definitely avoid that dealership in the future. I had an incident with Burns Honda at Marlton, NJ where the tech over tightened my lugnuts to 110 lbs. The Costco tech needed to snap one of the studs because it wouldn’t come loose. I already marked the Honda tech who did that to my...

It depends on the brand of the tire since different manufacturers have different side wall shape. But a 255 for a 9.5 will definitely be fine and not be overstretched compared to a 245.

You need to get 255 for a 9.5 width rim.

245/40/18. Wheel spec 18x8.5 +44mm offset with 5mm wheel spacer. Should have used a 35 series profile for the tires instead.
