Mine came yesterday. From what I understand it’s basically next years tax return?

yes, $2000 a month. we dont have to wait for trump to put his name on ours though.

I can tell you with certainty that is utterly false. The money was sent via direct deposit to accounts starting today. My girlfriend got her $1200. I didn’t get **** but I didn’t expect to get anything either.

Damn! $2k/month wow. That's regardless of how much the person makes?

Mine is in my account "pending" as of this morning. It wasn't there last night.

correct. but you have to qualify for it. basically as long as your not essential and you arent working you get it. anyone that applies gets it, but if you dont qualify for it they will take it back on your tax return next year. makes it easier for people who qualify to get it i guess. took my wife 5 minutes on the phone without talking to a person.

if its like canada it will just count towards your income, so basically yes.

false for people that dont get direct deposit?

get a Hondata tuner with that refund if you don't have one, I got mine used and it works. I did buy it here. It's a very nice tuner.

Not from what I understand. It is just like Obama stimulus packages he did. It is an aid to help people but if you owe taxes and child support they deduct your stimulus.

It's apart of a 'stimulus initiative' , so it doesn't come back on your taxes. That was the number one question that I had, too.

It's essentially like any ol' check once you get it.

Just get them 9” wide. You’ll have to do some fender work.

take a look at the koing ultragrams made with free spinning tech, they are almost as strong as forged wheels but lower in price. The size I like is the 17x8 and no mods to the wheel wells needed about 17.8 pds. Add about on inch over the stocks wheels. strong and light weight, they look really Sharpe too. They came out only recently maybe 2017. I have Koing daylights at 17pds each, they don't have freeflowing tech but are still strong, these are on my Neon's and I never broke one of them-that is saying something on crappy roads. Some light weight wheels bend too easy, so look at reviews. RFP1's would bend on my roads for sure, just too weak. It no fun to buy something like this and just end up with a expensive bent rim :bananawhipdance:

good tip. im looking into konig. i really like a few of their designs... theirdesigns are similar to other wheels but with their own sorta twist. I prefer the look of the 8inch wide rpf1’s over the 9inch.

no need for 9inch on tiny civic
The 9” and wider rpf1’s are a different design versus the narrower version. Most like the 9” and wider design so it doesn’t look like the spokes are bubbled outward. The 9” is more flush spokes.

8” wide

that car wouldn't even make it out of my driveway without leaving body parts. I don't think a civic needs anything Bigger than 225/45/17 tires unless it has a turbo or SC. But does it fit standard wheel wells too? Sometimes more is less. That a good try however at looks, not function. rides very stiff too.
maybe 235/40/17 but then you lose 1/2 inch in ground clearance simply useless on bad roads. a 24 mm rear sway bar would be a better choice. Eats a lot of extra gas tooo. I wonder what the Koing hypergrams would look like-they are much stronger rims than these and lower priced, but not lower at all in quality. It also pass's the Ricer Look:rotfl:

yes that civic is lowered, but it has nothing to do with my comment regarding the difference in the wheel design from 9” and wider. That’s why many comment about 9” rpf1’s.



Here's 17x8 on my civic
21B40F36-E63F-4B5D-9D34-450A46109ABB.jpeg

as for tire width, Safe Gabe has run 255’s.
17x9+22 on 255/40-17 tires up front. He also takes his car to the track (clearly)

With the 9j +35, you need to just roll the middle tab of the front fenders. You can run a +45, but you camber needs to be very very conservative because clearance will be an issue on the front struts.


I'm on a +22 with a 255 up front on stock fenders. They're pulled, but they're stock. You can safely run a 9j with a +35.

This is my +35 setup with 255/40/17 up front. It fit, but JUST barely. As I said early — I'd recommend running a square 235 all the way around if it's your daily driver and you're looking for a rotatable setup. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I was toying around with the idea of getting 17x9 +35’s rpf1’s. Same color as the pic above. I’d prolly have to get camber bolts for the fronts but idk. Kinda getting hyped on the hatchy. Prolly gonna finish that this summer.
