  1. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    The full size spare is a extra wheel off my FK8 that got ruined by a car wash.
  2. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    Give me a couple of days. Probably Tuesday and I'll post a picture.
  3. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    One last thing even though i showed the spare would fit on the front I would never drive the car with it there. With our limited slip differential you could really mess up the differential with that rubber band up front. I'll always put it on the back and move a good tire to the front. Unless...
  4. Lug Nut Torque for FL5 - Owners Manual Wrong!

    If over torqued it can warp rotors. I'm keeping mine at 94. I had a Ridgeline, have a Pilot, and had the FK8 with the same size studs they were 94lbs. Like I said I'm going by size of the studs. The smaller studs civic and CRV are 80lbs.
  5. Lug Nut Torque for FL5 - Owners Manual Wrong!

    Torque specs are normally set by the size of the stud. I torqued mine to 94lbs. I'm pretty sure Honda only has two sizes and these are the large studs.
  6. Lug Nut Torque for FL5 - Owners Manual Wrong!

    My brother worked for honda for years. I think that torque spec is wrong. I tried my spare and we have the same size studs as the FK8. I'll post when I find out. I looked in the manual also. He is going to check with the dealership.
  7. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    From what I have seen the FL5 kit will lose more space. I have installed the tire in under the floor cover as a reference. The tire well is very shallow compared to the FK8.
  8. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    No problem. My main concern is how much room is left after a tire kit installed. I carry a ice chest for fishing all the time. it was really close with my FK8.
  9. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    Tried the tire and tools including jack everything works fine.
  10. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    I haven't tried it. I figured it would. I'll try and let everyone know the results.

  15. Honda Alcantara Suede Steering wheel and Red shifter worth it?

    I see we are getting rid of all the parts we didn't' want with the car. I plan on selling the Aclantara wheel and the high type r mats when my new weathertech type r labled mats get here today. I list when I get the Wheel swapped out.
  16. Honda Alcantara Suede Steering wheel and Red shifter worth it?

    I think it all depends on how clean you keep your hands. I mean it feels really nice, but I fish at least once a week and was a diesel mechanic for over 20 years so probably not for me. The cleaning instructions say lightly clean with damp cloth and then brush it. My personal opinion you are...
  17. FL5 vs FK8

    I have owned both. FL5, I put 40,000 miles on my FK8. Better ride, tires and wheels, seats, log/r, and honda sensing. Mine didn't have it.
  18. Honda Alcantara Suede Steering wheel and Red shifter worth it?

    Here is a few pics. Both wheels are the same with the exception of the leather, truthfully I only got the steering wheel and shift knob as part of a package. I paid MSRP for the car but had to buy the carbon wing, forged wheels, etc. i also included a pic of shifter cover for summer hand relief.
  19. Honda Alcantara Suede Steering wheel and Red shifter worth it?

    I love the shifter because, in the summer with the metal I could read the shift pattern on my palm. I currently have the Alcantra steering wheel on the car, it is brushed leather and feels good. But will have to cover it if I keep it on. Between fishing and working on cars it won't be good. The...
