This is an awesome thread for me tbh. I just orfered T6R in black. Gonna go with some dark chrome lug nuts.
Also ordered yoko tires at 255/40R18 because it's a closer to OEM size in diameter.

Will report if there is any rubbing when i get them installed. Question: do these wheels need hub centric rings?

For hub rings : 72.6/72.5mm-64.1mm

Just dropped off my wheels to get the 275/35’s mounted. Not sure when I’ll have time to switch wheels though.

Finally. Fitment-Industries gave me hard time. I don’t think that I am gonna buy again from there.

Very nice! What lugs are those? What happened with Fitment Ind exactly?

1320 performance M14X1.50.

So I order the wheels with lug-nuts through the phone. The order came from 3 different suppliers.

The lug nuts and hub rings never arrived because they put the wrong address. I called them and after 8 hours and 3 different calls, finally, they arrange to send it again. I received the lug nuts and they send M12 instead of M14. Four days of phone calls(no one answered) and emails, and the lug nuts arrived today. Original order date 28/04/22

Mita Y. Ordered in Jan and received about 90 days later. Was waiting on Costco to restock 265/35 ps as4 but that was taking a while so went one size wider.

Same here, no luck with Costco. Finally I got the PS2 it’s a nice tire.

If you read carefully all the the thread, you gonna realize that is better to go 265/35/18. Yes you need hub rings.

hey yeah I do see that the general concensus here is with 265/35. but I'm not tracking the car, and using it as a daily in city I don't get to much spirited drive anyway. cops here in summer are always on the lookout for cars like our civic.

I'm from Montreal, where potholes are everywhere as if Russia just invaded. they are basically craters at this point. so higher profile makes me feels safer too...

if I ever lower the car I will swap for 265/35

Just picked up the set from Costco. They look good. Total weight with Mita Y and 275/35/18 95Y ZP Michelin pilot sport all season 4 is 49 lbs per wheel and tire. Will install them in a few days, doubt I’ll get it done today.

Sorry to share this thread but I feel like it has some momentum going.

Also I just realized ZP stands for zero pressure so I bought run flats without knowing.

Damn that seems pretty heavy for the wheel and tire combo no? I believe 49 lb is the same as OEM

It’s heavier than I’d like I suppose but I’m sure it’s due to me ordering the ZP or run flat model. The wheel alone is about 18.5 lbs on my scale. Oh well they are all seasons for normal use for me. Just trying to note things as I come across them.

 

[BoostedDreams]

OEM is 53lbs

OEM is 53lbs

Yes that’s what I’ve read. I’ll weigh one when I swap. Only 600 mi on my oem set so very near full tread.

Appreciate that correction!
