Not impressed with Gillman when I bought my Accord in 2014.
Nothing big, just a lot of little things.
Like, I said "don't put a dealer sticker on the trunk." Sales guy says "no problem". And then someone slaps a sticker on there.
Or how my bluetooth was DOA and the quoted one day repair turned...
NVH...none on my Accord, haven't installed on the Civic yet but I expect the same
And sorry, didn't save the the thread and a quick search turned up nada. I can't recall what sub-forum it was in.

But to make it up to you...I did a search on car-parts.com. There were plenty of options.
This left side replacement was $25.

I lost 12lbs per corner and saw better in-town mpg but lost 3-4 mpg on freeway trips
I used a 17" spare from 05-12 Acura RL...its an alloy, not steel, and with the tire that came on TL, its really close to the same diameter as our Si wheel/tire combo. So you get a full diameter spare, albeit thinner, that you can use without worry about LSD or hopefully TPMS. Without sacrificing...
