[Install Guide] Installing aFK8 spare tire and full kit in the FL5

[zumbooruk]

What's the final price on Honda Parts Now after shipping? I know you can pick it up at some dealers with DreamShop so you can avoid shipping charges. I don't think I would care whether it's black or yellow as it's only a spare that'll get me to limp home.

color makes no difference indeed. but weight does...

It seems (I might be wrong) that the yellow is aluminum, and black is steel.

and further, I assume aluminum is lighter weight.

shipping is a killer, but local SoCal stealerships, either direct, or via dreamshop want full $213 price (which is cheaper than $150 plus shipping...)

I ordered the same kit 06421-TGH-A33ZA from my dealership back in April, and the wheel included was the yellow aluminum one. The donut spare tire was a separate part number. The dealership mounted it too, and was ready to go when I picked it up. All in was right about $329

weird, that's not what I am seeing at Honda Parts Now, though the price is the same as in your image.

I will contact local SoCal stealerships will not match prices, and some want more than suggested prices...

Just received the tire today can confirm it is the yellow spare

good price they charged 369 for parts and didnt mount it i would need to make an appt with them to do so. Drove down the street to a tire shop and got it mounted for 35$ in 20 min

Anyone know if you could retro fit this into a de5?

Look at the threads on the Integra forums. Problem is that the DE5 don't have the fixation point in the trunk. I did manage to add one, but it is involving. Someone else did drill their trunk to add one... Then for the spare, I used a RL spare (17"), but it only fits in the rear. At least it is better than no spare at all. Someone else fitted a BMW wheel, but you have to drill the wheel so it fits on the car.

In short, no easy way.

The foam posts you removed do serve a purpose if one wants to use the factory foam tray: they contact the spare around the tray and add support to the floor. Doing this does make the whole thing another inch or so higher, and will need a solution to support the back lateral edges of the floor by the same amount. It DOES add a broad support base to the center of the floor for ppl who carry heavy stuff (I do.)

06421-TGH-A13ZA also works for the spare tire kit. Dealer couldnt find 33ZA or 23ZA so maybe 13ZA is an updated number? Continental tire is (T124-70-18) 42751-CTL-039
Total was $363.75 + $21.83 tax = 385.58.

Im a little confused on this, (maybe having a blonde moment). Since this is for thre FK8 which came with 20" OEM wheels, how does this work with the FL5 19in OEM wheels?

If the spare clear the calipers/rotors on the 20" OEM, it will work on the FL5 19" setup. The overall diameter of both are similar (FK8 have less tire sidewall). Bolt pattern and hub are the same.

The overall circumference of the wheel with tire for the FK8 and FL5 is about the same so the spare fits for both. actually the spare is closer to the FL5 than the FK8.

FK8 245/30/20: 81"
FL5 265/30/19: 79.4"
spare 125/70/18: 78.2"

Awesome, thanks for the info! Been thinking about doing this so this helps.
