Thread: need some major help/advice. car noob =x.

ive never had issues with the oem ex rims. thats a silly excuse if he is blaming the rim. and millions of people get snow tires put on every year. if it was so dangerous with a thicker bead and all those safety issues, nobody would do it and shops would refuse due to liability issues. and why if the manager noticed all these problems with YOUR specific rims, did he not tell you at the time they were installing it "look these rims...

^ Thats what i did too on my CL-S.. I didnt have no problems ever since. I think its just a extra protection. but i would not remove it if i had a long air intake..

What happens when you try to start it? Does it click?

Yea I have an OEM as well..so I am out on this, but I never noticed that notch on the hybrid spoiler. Looks stupid, nice to know it wont be on the CF ones.

Not saying for sure but I will probly be there for the drive. I live in North Wilkesboro NC so its not too far.

so how can i tell for sure? there is no smoke from exhaust from cold start.. no visible leaks of any kind on the engine.. Im going there tomorrow to look at it in the day light.. ill check the oil and antifreeze. What else should i look for? but if it is blown my dad can fix that.. what other things could cause the bubbling?

thanks, i ended up using a six sided socket rather than a 12 sided but thanks for the info

do you know where i can get a fast idle at? honda wants like 120 bucks for one

yeah i thought i sounded like it was coming from the engine. thanks oh and what year is your civic?

Those look awesome. I'd be in if I didn't have a coupe. Just wondering though. How the HELL can that weigh 20 lbs? It's just a small strip of plastic!
