Hi everyone,
I sold my Type R earlier this year and I'm just now getting rid of both spare sets of wheels/tires. This thread is about my Titan TS5 wheels & Michelin tires, but if you're interested in set of winter wheels/tires please see this thread here:

Hi guys,
I sold my Type R earlier this year and I'm just now getting rid of both spare sets of wheels/tires.
If you're interested in some Titan TS5 wheels + Michelin tires please see this thread here:

My old detailer is temporarily out of the business. Looking for someone who’s located around the Portland/Beaverton/Hillsboro area. Currently my wife’s new car will need a detailing due to the painters tape I put on to protect the front and a ceramic coating as well. If you are someone who...
*TLDR: car plagued with low tire pressure light. Should I get different type R or sell and get different car listed below*
Two years ago I posted here about needing assistance deciding between CTR and STI. I went Type R and on a day to day basis this car has been pretty spectacular for the most...
*Sigh*..first time I've curbed a wheel in years. I just talked to the wheel repair shop I've used in the past and they told me that even if they match the paint exactly that I'll have one wheel that wont match the others as they've been exposed to the elements. They also said that it will also...
Hi Guys,
Yesterday someone backed into my car at a cafe. Damage doesn’t look too bad. The rear bumper is scuffed, the plastic reflector is broken, and the bumper isn’t lining up. Any idea of what this might cost to get fixed? Can you order the bumpers already painted from the factory?
The...
Hi everyone,
First, I know there are a few other TPMS threads, but I felt mine is a little different. Second, F this TPMS system - I would happily have HAPILY paid extra for a traditional TPMS system with how much time this has sucked out of my life. Now a rundown of the history I've had with...
Hi guys,
First, this will be somewhat be large post with lots of pictures. Lots of respect if you read the whole thing, but even a vote is helpful. I was going to post this in the wheel/tire section but thought I would get more input here. If it has to be moved I understand.
My wife can...
Hi guys,
So my 2019 has always made this weird high pitched noise coming from the front of the car ever since I got it with 13 miles on it. It sounds something like when a brake pad is getting too low and starts to hit the indicator but it's not quite as extreme as that. It occurs when I'm...
Hi guys,
I think I can break my wheel/tire questions into three different categories.
1. Wheel Model:
I'm looking at either the Sparco Pro Corsa ( 18 X 8 45 offset) vs Enkei Rajin (18 X 8 42 offset) for just winter wheels. I like the look of the Raijin better, and it's lighter but it has the...
HI guys,
Trying to decide between full hood/fender/bumper PPF for around $1750 to $1800 or going for partial hood/front bumper for around $850. On my last WRX I did partial hood/bumper and it worked pretty well, but I know the paint on these cars are pretty sensitive. Not sure it helps, but...
Hi guys,
I posted a few weeks back the civic type r vs sti thread. I ended up going with the type r and wanted to get your opinion. It arrived in Oregon today with 18 miles on the odometer. My sales paperwork said the car had 5 miles. It arrived off the truck with a full tank of gas but looking...
Hi guys,
Fist, I apologize for such a long post and appreciate if you read all the way through. Also, I should stipulate this is for a daily driver, not a weekend car.
So I currently have a down payment on a Civic Type R that’s located in another state. Took at least a solid week or two to...
