I haven't tried on the FL5, but on the FK8 a full-size wheel/tire won't fit in the spare tire spot. Annoying. I still carry a full spare on any kind of long trip, but it's just on the floor behind the rear seat, tied down.

I saw something like this happen on a 2021 limited edition FK8. The buyer wanted just what was mentioned above - roll it off the delivery truck and back onto a buyer-supplied flatbed. The dealer did it. I don't know about the PDI rules in effect then.

Excellent suggestion. I've found most tire shops will be honest about whether they can handle these or not. Strangely, my local Honda dealer can't. They sub them out.

Look up "Removing wheel lock nuts without the key" on youtube. Then decide. I have them but don't use them. They're just a pain to me.

This is a ripping deal for someone who can use them.

A local dealer had a CW and a BB in stock. I went there expecting to like the CW better because I didn't like the older Aegean Blue. When I saw the CW and BB side-by-side, I took the BB.

Here's what Tire Rack has to say about it: Like the motorsports tires they have evolved from, all Extreme Performance Summer performance category tires feature constructions and compounds that have been tuned to maximize traction and performance within a range of warm-to-hot ambient...

76 My wife, who will be 75 next month, drives the 2018 Accord listed in my profile. She's making noises about wanting a car with a manual. Before the Accord, she had a 2017 Subaru WRX, a 2013 Civic Si, a 2010 5-speed Accord, and a 2007 Civic Si. There are a couple of Si-s available locally.

It's a good wrench. I have it, too. It's nice not to have to worry about backing it off after every use. But it is expensive compared to a lot of others.

Very probably. It looks just like the one I have except for the color of the anodized part. The brand I have is "FirstInfo".

22 mm I suggest getting a narrow socket with a nylon outer cover. There's not a lot of room in the holes in the OEM wheels. It's easy to scratch the wheel paint.

Agreed. Turn it off. I haven't yet had a car that does the auto high beam reliably. My CTR and my wife's Honda Accord react way too slowly, if they work at all.

2018 Honda Accord EX-L. 2.0T, 10AT. My wife's car. It has a Sport Mode that changes the shifting a lot and the steering and throttle response a little. It's got pretty good power (252HP). But, it's best at highway cruising. In tenth gear the engine is turning 1900 RPM at 80 MPH. The trans...

I wonder what the manufacturing capacity of that plant is. This might be more available than the Honda FL5.

I have a BBP FK8. Before that I had a red Subaru WRX. With the WRX I got stopped four times in the first month I owned it. No tickets, just stops. Driving the same roads at the same times at the same speeds in the CTR, I've not been stopped in two years. The cops all know about WRX's, and know...

Every state's different, unfortunately. Call the Maine DMV and ask. I'm sure they deal with this all the time.

I've seen them on some Honda in the US. I don't remember which one. They're resonators for noise reduction. Resonators

I'd just follow the Maintenance Minder. My CTR usually goes about 7,000 miles before it says it needs an oil change. My wife's 2.0T Accord goes a lot fewer miles, though. She doesn't use it much, so it usually goes by time rather than miles. Last time it was a year and about 4,000 miles.

MSRP is just a number. In my opinion, it's not even the most important number. The only thing I care about is the size of the check I have to write. That's after all the haggling, appraisals on whatever I might be trading, fees, taxes, etc. I'm fortunate to live in a state with no sales tax, so...

Someone in my state (NH) made a post in a local Facebook page saying he had a BBP one in his business that people could look at and even sit in. So, there are a few around.
