Well.. the car is good. No more clunking noises when turning. And I talked my way out of the 200 dollar deductible.

I'd seriously contact honda corp about it so it's documented they wanted to charge you a deductible.

Plasti dip is so versatile!
I dipped my handles and my gas cover and I even tried tinting my tail lights with it. Just used plasti dip gloss to make it a little shiny too.

TBH that makes your door handles look like unpainted plastic handles found on cheaper cars...

How do you guys feel about steel wheels? Practical? Or.. ugly. I personally like them.

I use steelies on dedicated winter tires due to road salt and stuff.

Same here. Great for winters. Unless they don't clear brake calipers.

Are you doing this instead of hubcaps?

 

[Dii Miller]

Well that's the plan. I currently just have my covers painted black.

Keep the covers on. It's your car, but that's my .02

I had aftermarket reps before, 17X8, and I noticed my gas economy was really bad (around 9.0 - 9.5 l/100km).
I switched back to my OEM 15" steel rims and am now getting 7.2 l/100km.

I can feel better acceleration with the steel rims possibly cuz of the weight difference.
The low profile tires on the 17" made cornering much sharper and had more grip but off the line acceleration was worse.

Next time if I am investing in rims I'm going to buy higher end brands.

it makes me think of a car running a donut because they have a flat tire. In winter it's pretty much the norm to run steelies in snow areas on dedicated winter tires. Some have a 2nd set of alloy wheels, but not everyone.

 

[Jake LXer]

When I was saving up for wheels I just ran the steelies as they were without the hubcaps

 

[Dii Miller]

So. Im thinking about getting some diamond steelies. Anybody get them before?

They're more for the stance scene in my opinion . Idk if they'll look any good unless you're slammed to the ground because I've never seen it any other way.

I do think the look really nice though.

Who knows maybe they'll look amazing on 9th gens

The offset/backspacing on them is really hard to fit.
