Did you use the 10MM wheel spacers with stock wheel studs and lug nuts?

Yea I did, and it got plenty of thread left with the stock studs and nut. I thought I was going to have problems there but it worked out pretty well.

Update!

got the catless down pipe and front pipe installed. Butt Dyno feels car pulls a little harder.

used an o2 sensor extension and after two days of driving still no Cel. Hopefully stays that way until some ecu programming comes out

Fantastic!!! who made the front pipe and downpipe for you... they look great!!

The quality is epic. Hopefully PRL, Hondata etc. come with other parts soon.

Was the downpipe and front pipe the same as the FK8? looks like the downpipe is the same but the front pipe has a sharper bend to it than the FK8 one

Correct, Down pipe is the same but the front pipe is not.

Just wondered which springs you chose for the .8 drop?
Looks awesome!

the Op used FK8 H&R springs. I went by his recommendation after seeing how well they fit and used them for my car as well, rides really good and the drop is perfect!

Does indeed look awesome!! what spacers did you use?

Correct, H&R springs.

Are these linear or progressive? I know some hr are linear. You want linear springs to work best with adaptive dampers.

Good question, usually H&R springs are progressive. H&R knows that fk8 and fl5 have adaptive dampers so hopefully they are linear. Tomorrow I can call H&R and ask. But By the look of the springs I believe they are linear.
