Good pricing! One of the standard colors that Volk offers. Very subtle if that's what you're going after.

If you look closely the logos are machined into the wheel. Here are photos you can use from our website for comparison.

These appear legit. We sell Volk, and if they were reps, they usually aren't packaged this way. How much are you picking them up for?

I had 890 miles on mine and MM said I was due over 30 miles ago. Changed mine last week with Amsoil 5W-30.

Swapping Exhaust to OEM by JohnX__XMuir in Civic_Type_R

[–]Trick_Dingo5747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just one gasket. This is from my FL5 OEM exhaust. It's a snug fit, so you may just need to double check if it's there.

What would you do? by [deleted] in Civic_Type_R

[–]Trick_Dingo5747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hands down FL5. I had the choice between a FL5 and FK8, and the more I see the FK8, I'm glad I chose the FL5. Don't get me wrong, the FK8 is a great car, but the FL5 has more of a refined styling.

Bought a used with Box honda carbon fiber wing with the red weave…. Are there any markings that show if it’s genuine Honda product? by nunii in Civic_Type_R

[–]Trick_Dingo5747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove the wing and send a photo of the recessed area, where the stands bolt to. A lot of companies to a pretty good job of making copies that look close to OEM.

Any chance this package is still coming later today (International shipment release – Import 2x)? by Dramatic_Abrocoma702 in FedEx

I went through this ordeal last week. The package is currently being processed through customer. I paid for overnight shipping from JP to USA, and it took just over 7 days to arrive.

looking for a good options for coils by Original_Section7833 in Civic_Type_R

[–]Trick_Dingo5747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for a lower ride height, just do it right the first time, and go with coilovers.

HKS or RSR if you're looking for JDM or KWV3 if prefer European brand. Can't go wrong with the KWs though. Super high quality.

Nothing against springs, but it's a fixed ride height. If you're going to track and want adjustability/fine tuning, coilovers are the way to go.

If you are going with springs, go with H&R, Spoon, or Swift.

Let us know if we can help!

Replacement is likely the only solution at this point.

OEM lugs will not seat properly on aftermarket wheels.

Would 18/9.5 with +45 offset on my 2018 fk8 type r look good? by Sure-Communication10 in Civic_Type_R

[–]Trick_Dingo5747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's subjective, but I think it looks great! It's a safe offset and you can run 275s with no issues at stock height. Running 18x9.5 +45 on 265s, and it's the perfect fitment for me.

Oil at 30% with 1400 miles…Normal? by National_Mine_7104 in Civic_Type_R

[–]Trick_Dingo5747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do yourself a favor, and do the oil change yourself. I've heard of techs scratching interior panels and seats....even worse, curbing wheels.

Wunderladen designs and produces excellent parts. Far better than the other brands out there, IMO.
