Here is a link to the ramps I purchased on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BP5C3749/

Seems normal. These engines vibrate a lot in the 3-4K RPM range. They took out the balance shafts when designing the K20C1.

Great thread. You might want to update your original post to be 5.7 QUARTS and not liters. 5.7 liters is about 6 quarts which is too much. For anyone else curious I found some ramps that lifted the front of my car 6 inches and was able to change the oil without a jack/jack stands. Just enough...

Since you're asking for a Type S I recommend sticking with the 265/30/19 to keep the same driving dynamics as stock. I've been very impressed with the Continental DWS06+ on my FL5 with Type S wheels for the winter. These cars are so well-engineered from the factory that I noticed a pretty big...

I'm not sure the purpose of this when there are tons of 5x114.3 wheels available for these cars. You're going to be running quite a bit wider wheel and then the spacer/adapter is going to make them stick out even further.

I'm the owner of a FL5 Civic Type R and one of the parts of the interior that I dislike the most is the smooth leather steering wheel. It was lightly damaged on delivery and has gotten worse by me getting in/out over 8000 miles. It's very soft and prone to scratching from metal buttons on jeans...

Where's the wing?! Looks great! I'm running Type S wheels on my FL5 for my winter set!

I stand corrected on the reverse mount and TPMS learning! This is the first car I've heard of that self-learns. That's pretty cool! I did not mention this to Discount Tire and they either figured it out or didn't have any issues mounting my tires on the Type S wheels the normal way. No damage...

265/35/19 are actually 1 inch larger diameter than 265/30/19 which is about 12mm extra sidewall. The 35 is a ratio - not a measurement of mm of sidewall. Your speedo will be off by about 4% compared to the stock diameter.

I’m not surprised. You went with over 1 inch narrower squishy winter tires. It’s going to suck. This is a big part of why I wanted to go with 265 all seasons and the exact same width and offset as stock. It still feels great to drive.

Michelin PS4S tires suck in cold temps. If I had the choice of damaging winter tires by putting extra miles on them or crashing my car I'd choose damaging winter tires. You will find that all seasons are significantly better than the stock tires in the rain in all temperatures.

Those are very wide for stock wheels. I wouldn't run that wide in the winter strictly for the reason of not throwing up extra road debris on the side of the car. It sounds to me like one is out of balance. I would take it back to the person who mounted the tires. If they can't balance it then...

I haven't had a chance to take photos yet but I've been very happy with my DWS 06 Plus over the last couple of days. They grip better than I was expecting in the wet (drove in heavy rain yesterday) and the car was actually fun to drive in the rain compared to stock where it struggles for...

These were sold to me a few weeks ago. I don't think he checks this forum as often.

I’m hoping to mount my ITS wheels on my FL5 this week. I went with 265/30/19 Continental DWS 06 Plus and I am excited to see how they do in the rain compared to the stock tires.

They aren't summer tires... From Tire Rack: The ExtremeContact DWS 06 PLUS is Continental's Ultra High Performance All-Season tire developed for drivers of sports cars, sports coupes, performance sedans, SUVs and CUVs. Designed to improve upon key metrics compared to its predecessor, like...

Very few people with an FL5 have reported issues with grinding gears. It makes me think it’s a driver issue. I encourage you to research the best techniques for shifting into each gear. I had to relearn how to drive manual with my AP1 S2000 and have yet to have any issues with my FL5.

These are my feelings after running 18x9.5 +45 TE37 wheels on my FL5. Pros: Comfort is better. I didn't feel the need to get an Integra Type S ADS unit anymore. +R suspension mode was able to be used on the street. If you swap to 18" wheels on your Type S you will likely want to get a Type R...

I noticed some pretty negative handling changes swapping to the “conservative” 18x9.5 +45 setup on my FL5. I ended up going back to stock and prefer how the car handles. I also picked up a set of Integra Type S wheels to run for the winter since I wanted stock width and offset. There are very...

It has not shown up yet. They have been on backorder for 2 months but a few guys who ordered at the same time just got theirs. I think it will just randomly show up one day.
