Squiggy's 2012 DBP II Si Coupe

[squiggy]

Wow that's a deal! Nice.

What do you think of those dunlop snow tires? I think they were a lot better than the new contis I got this year.

They have been amazing. I spin them every once in a while, but not to the point that it is an issue. No real issues with them wanting to slide out on me either. Makes me wish I wasn't such a cheap bastard sticking with all seasons with past cars.

What are you going to do about the TP sensors? Costco has them for $45 each but that seems pricey to me

Not sure yet. I originally thought about getting some I could clone, but if CostCo will reprogram them free of charge, I may just get a second set.

I know this isn't what you were asking about, but consider generals. I literally cannot believe how well they perform. I've only had them on for a season, but based on this year, I wouldn't even hesitate buying another set. Ridiculous traction.

I had a bad experience with generals a couple years ago but, I do see tons of good reviews for their tires. I won't rule them out in the future.

I 2nd Webby's post. This is my first set of General's and they are nice. Mine are a bit noiser than I'd like but that might be because of installer.

Just put my order in for some wheels. Big thanks to @Rudy@tirerack and Grant at @TireRack for the help!

To go with these:

Love white as your choice. Will look really sharp.

Thanks! I just need to find some new center caps. Not a real fan of the ones they come with. If I could find a white cap with a red Honda H that fits, I would be super happy.

Aaaand just found out they won't be in until May.

I have red H vinyl overlays on my centre caps. I painted over the Acura caps and then added the vinyl. Really happy with the result. Still fine after 2 summers.

What size did you go with on the wheels?

That is definitely an option...if I can get the white to match.

I still have to figure out how to deal with the TPMS situation.

You need to get a close match. Mine are close, not perfect, but you can't tell.

Costco quoted me $45 per sensor
