It looks to me like the eBay clone versions, probably with better fitment. Plus, you don’t have to deal with tariffs, cross your fingers for a reputable seller, or play the waiting game hoping your part eventually gets shipped by the JDM and their tax. I’ve bookmarked it now!

Did you end up going for it? I want to do it on a FL5 but don’t know where to start if you can share any part number that you get? Keep us posted

If that’s a thing, I always like them! I even did one on my ’06 Scion, but I ended up removing it because I tried to get the Honda OEM one. Back in those days, they were really hard to find and expensive. If it’s a viable option to retrofit the Euro version to this one, I’m totally in for a...

Good info to know! Thank you!

Beautiful garage regardless. I always wanted to do something similar on mine. I have the lighting, but the floor can’t decide on what to do 😂 like getting a damn exhaust!

Ok ok! I will settle this once and for all! 😂😂😂😂

So has begun and gates just open for a 3k pages tread! Because google affirm the bias of each! 😂

No, I haven’t. I’m going to stick with Akebono because it fits my daily driving style, doesn’t leave messy dust on the wheels, and isn’t very expensive. Plus, I don’t have to worry about paying the JDM tax just because!

It looks really nice! This is probably one of those wheels you should order right away—because in two weeks, it’ll be completely sold out, and then you might have to wait three years to get them. They look great and unique, definitely giving the car a GT3 vibe!

Well, I know people will probably get mad, but I just started running Valvoline Restore and Protect on all my cars, including the FL5. I change my oil every 5,000 miles anyway. I’m not banging on the rev limiter all day; I cruise at 75 mph. This is my second oil change, and the car hasn’t...

Sure, will do! I hope the pair with the Continental DWS06 turns out to be a better daily driver than the Pilot Sport. Don’t get me wrong—they’re amazing tires—but for my needs, on the two really cold days we get in Texas 😂, I end up borrowing my wife’s SUV. She then has to drive my 2006 Scion xA...

I really enjoy this car. For me, and where I live, it handles amazingly. I don’t know if I’m just getting older or if I’m used to older cars, but this one feels great. Of course, it’s not an E-Class, but it’s still very enjoyable—I drive it about 600 miles a week! I’m not pushing the car to its...

I did it with my wheels 😂

Today was a great day! I was on my way back from Austin when my wife asked if I knew what was on the front porch. I had no clue—turns out, my wheels had finally arrived! They look amazing. I’ll get the tires mounted soon, but just setting them next to the car, they seem like they’ll have the...

Longevity isn’t possible without some testing, and some companies have been doing this for years. They need to start somewhere. I don’t think that’s exactly how things have been handled in this case, but it’s still a possibility and an option that exists. Ride quality is something that matters...

How much does lowering? Is it a lot? How much does it set you back monetary compared to an established brand?

Well, you’re like me—but for me, I just can’t decide if I want an exhaust or not! I can’t stand the whole JDM business model, and here in the States, most companies just aren’t quite there in terms of quality. But man, it’s tough with these 4-bangers to find something that sounds nice without...

I don’t use the charge pad; the wireless CarPlay is unreliable, that’s why I got the Quadlock. The wired have the phone constantly charging.

Sadly, you’ll have to let it go. Is the G80 the M3? If so, that’s a pretty cool car too! And that Raptor next to the Type R—now that’s a combo right there! Again thank you for the wheel brand recommendation!

So far, I haven’t had any issues with it. I also changed the setting in the system menu by pressing the home button, power, and left skip to make it wired only. The Quad Lock has a stable connection. I tried two from Amazon, and they caused the same issue. It was probably the one I got, but this...
