Guys, for those of you without an Aspec Kit, I am selling my OEM Bra from my Type S. Since I now have an Aspec Kit, I can no longer use it. Here is the link for it on the Black Market:

https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/oem-tl-bra-2007-2008-a-864747/


Or you can send me a PM about it, if you're interested.

Okay guys I need some advice. It seems I cracked my rim. I don't know whether to fix it or just buy a whole new set of rims the thing is if I fix them, This would be the second time around that I fixed these set of rims in less than six months. what you think I should do? And how could I get rid of these rims do you think anybody would buy them or could I trade them in for anything?

what kind of rims are they so i know which ones not to buy? personally i like to stick with oem, but if you want to go aftermarket, i would find another set you like and get those. Problem is your going to have to get it fixed anyway to sell them and make some of your money back..

Damn that sucks. I for sure wouldn't sell them on the BM unless they were fixed.

I wouldn't really sell them locally either.

The only other way would be to sell them with disclosure that it is cracked. Or like Sick said to fix them first but would still disclose they had been fixed.

Sounds like if you are having problems with those rims then I would heavily weigh the options of getting a different set for sure.

I also agree with Sick. I like to stick with a factory rim. I have RJ Legends right now and really like them but I would go with an RDX or some other different model rim of Honda OEM stature if I sell these.

My 92 hatch had 00 civic SI rims and my 00 Accord V6 had 07 civic SI rims on it. Just to back what I was saying.

That's a tough situation man, selling cracked weight bearing components or not disclosing such info could get you into some trouble. I think the best bet is to get a whole new set or replace the cracked unit all together.

Im just curious, what kind of wheel is it ?

Thx and good luck !

They are 19x8 Privat Netz... I definitely won't try to sell them with out repairing them... Just sucks having to deal with it. Well at least now I'll be looking to go staggered with a new set of rims... But I might just put on the stocks for a bit just get some spacers to push them out a bit. Any suggestions on with size to get?

on stocks, im running 20mm in the back and had 15mm in the front but i was always catching the fenders because of being lowered. i ended up buying some 10mm spacers for the front and they should be here friday. Im running the stock waffles with 235-45/17 stock size. i would recommend 20mm rear and 10 mm front. here is a pic with 20/15mm R/F

Unfortunately I am in the Southwest where nothing happens. But mine type S is the only one I get to see.

I recently spotted a white base which appears to have plasti-dipped or painted black front grill.

Seen it 3 or 4 times now but only once while driving my car.

Yeah, the MT model of the TYPE S is butter smooth. One of the best gearbox I have driven for a Honda. I actually wanted a black one though. Not many 6 speed manual as it is though, saw a clean WDP and had to jump on purchasing a clean ride.

That is such a clean white. My grille is already needing a tear down and re-spray.
