Installed a set of Si rims back on my Civic hatch. Had them before but had to unload them. Finally, saved up cash and found a set for sale. Put on a set of Falken ZIEX all seasons and we're happy again.

To add: the guys at my local @Discount Tire did the work and as usual did a great job.

Looks great! I’ve been thinking about SI rims myself. How are the falkens I had them on my Tiburon very nosey and didn’t last long but that was pothole city NY

Thanks man! I got the Falken ZIEX960 A/S in 235/40/18s and my initial impression is that these are quieter than the Goodyear Eagle Sport A/S that come stock from Honda. They also have a bit more compliant ride which is nice since roads around here are always a mixed bag. The handling is a little more muted than I would like. GY Eagle Sports handles a bit more crisp. I don't intend to track this car but really needed a nice all-season tire that does most everything fairly well and also doesn't break the bank. But I've only driven 20 miles(!) with them today so lemme come back in about 1,000 miles and give a more thorough review.

Installed new Rixxu seat covers today. Please excuse the dirty car lol, today is the first day we haven’t had rain in at least a week.

Did you install seat covers on your rear seats? I have a coupe and I'm thinking about doing the fronts which I've seen a ton of people do but have not seen much of people using seat covers in the rear.

I haven’t installed rear covers myself, I rarely have passengers otherwise I would definitely consider installing them. I thought I came across a YouTube tutorial showing the install, but it could’ve been for a different model car.




Thinking about ordering some Rallyarmor mud flaps, any of you have any success with them?

I ended up getting bored so I bought some controller LED strips and built an android app that runs on the Civic's head unit in order to customise it. Lights up the driver-side footwell. Still early days but it's something!

The wheels look great but I hope you have smooth, pothole-free roads. Those beautiful aftermarket wheels aren't going to get a ton of protection from those 35 profile tires. :(
I was already paranoid about potholes with the stock wheels/tires, but now I'm going to be like an eagle and hopefully spot them a mile away ;)

BTW - loved your thread on the Ktuner journal. Read the whole thing, and as someone who's never modded a car before, it was super-informative, so, thanks for that.
