thanks Bro! This is great info.

Appreciate it! I own a CW FL5 and I’m pleased to know that these rims will fit perfectly to the stock tires. I’m contemplating to upgrade. Did you have to get new tpms sensor? Use the same ones from the stock rims?

I don’t have any wind noise/turbulence issue anymore

If you don't already have one, I would recommend acquiring a plastic trim removal tool. For the interior A pillar, you can utilize the trim tool to gently lift the molding, which is secured by a single screw located on the inside, holding the outer molding in place.

In addition, I believe the tinting and paint protection film (PPF) shop should remove the outer molding in order to properly install the PPF and tint. In my case, it's possible that they didn't reattach it back correctly. However, based on other people's experiences in this thread, it seems that...

On a related note, have you had the chance to bring it to the dealer for a diagnostic check?

It's intriguing to hear about the wind noise issue. Have you had a chance to take it to the dealer yet? If you did, what was their feedback?

That's really helpful advice. I'll be sure to try it out, thank you!

similarly, I am faced with the same problem when the windows are closed. I am considering the possibility of removing the protective film on the side mirrors, in the hope that this will alleviate the issue.

Two weeks ago on April 7th, I acquired my Type R. Initially, I did not encounter any issues with window noise upon delivery. However, after a few days, I had Xpel Tint and PPF applied. Following this, I started to experience an excessive amount of wind noise emanating from the A pillar of the...
