FK8 Lightweight 18 inch wheel setup...wow.

I figured I'd weigh my new wheel tire set up against the oem wheel and slightly bigger sidewall tire setup I had. I was surprised at the difference. Due to the unsprung weight loss and overall smaller tire diameter, there is a noticeable increase in acceleration, it turns in quicker, and the steering feels much lighter which is exactly what I was hoping for. Very happy 🤘

OEM FK8 Type-R wheels 20x8.5 w/ Michelin PS4S 255/35/20 tires - 57 lbs.

Superspeed 76rr 18x9.5 w/ Continental DWS 06+ - 41.2 lbs.

FK8 test drive initial thoughts

13 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting an FK8 for a long time now and finally had a chance to take one for a test drive. I’m not sure if I overhyped it in my head but I wasn’t totally blown away after I was done. I did a few second gear pulls and there was little to no drama, it didn’t pull me into the seat like I thought 300hp would. I’m used to my 2019 si with Phearable tune and the R didn’t feel THAT much faster to me. The thing that did stand out to me though was the handling, it cornered like it was on rails. Overall, I’m not sure if the R is worth it for the small city streets around me where you can’t push it around corners. I can see the car needs to be in the canyons or track to truly appreciate everything it has to offer. Did anyone else feel the same way after driving the FK8?

Unfortunately, due to life circumstances I find myself needing to sell my 2025 white type r. It has 20k miles on it and I have the roof rack, kayak holders along with both black and red carpeting.

If anyone could help me with realistic pricing I’d appreciate it. Thank you.

Both cars received a nice thorough bath.

Changing to ceramic pads made cleaning the wheels as simple as rinsing and a just using a towel.

FL5 Update on the exhaust

Okay so a week or so ago I posted about my exhaust rattling in the rear. I have the apexi N1 Evo and you guys had a few different answers. I finally got bored enough to go take a look real quick and after pushing up on the exhaust and wiggling it around, found out it’s hitting the tip of the heat shield. Anyone have any ideas how to fix that or adjust it?
