Official BOOST BLUE FL5 Type R Photos Thread

[SPH]

SWEET! I've been trying to buy the champ white over at Honda of Fishers but they will not budge at all from that 15k mark up. They have a boost blue that has also been sitting for more than a month.

I'd say it's worth a call to them to see if you can get on the list for 2024, markup was 3k. My salesman was Travis.

Scheduled to take delivery of mine in about a month. Need some mod ideas from the BB community! I'm thinking about adding the forged wheels bc I'm lucky enough to get mine at msrp, also like the TEs in gun metal

save the $$$ and put down on the ITS
I know...$5k vs. $55k
J/k-ing...you sure you want TE's?
Just seems like everyone on TE's.
I'd do Regamaster like @SimplyClean for the same price ...
Just a thought ...

Haha I have an S reserved for me at msrp if I want but the value proposition just isn't there vs an msrp R if im honest. All respect but I'm not a white wheel guy, I like simple and gunmetal preferably def open to other suggestions though. Are you guys seeing a notable difference in steering behavior with the different offset from oem?

Not much difference in steering to report

The TE looks so damn good on it though.

There are many good-looking wheels that just don't seem to fit the FL5 as far aesthetically.

I like the Regamaster too.

I'm sure TE37's will be time less, but for some reason, it seems half the photos share by fellow forum members are TE37's...Still, 20 years from now, I'll be like, yea buddy, those are really nice TE's...I've never own a set of TE37, but I'm sure I'll have a set on something in the future

I've been waiting on a friend to come thur and pay for a Sony Lens that he wanted to buy from me, but he's still a no show; So needless to say, I think he backed out and I'll have save a bit longer for nicer wheels. There's a forum member on CivicX trying to sell a set of Blue G025 and Blue Advan R6...as soon as I have additional $$, I'll be hitting him up if still available.

Yea, TE37s are great, but when half of the wheels you see on the FL5 are TE37's, than there might be too many of them around.

I vote oem forged accessory wheels - completely biased though ?.

I really like the OEM wheels. The only downside for me is that they are 19s.

In fairness I have yet to see an FL5 in my area and doubt that if I did they'd have TEs, I think the forums tend to give us exposure bias sometimes when we all think similarly on here ? Regardless I need to do some research on pricing for the different wheel options.

I'm curious what the Type S wheels would look like on the FL5, i dont mind them especially the bronze. It is funny though, on the FK8 dropping down to a 19" was a comfort game changer and now it seems most everyone wants 18s

I actually think they work really well on the BB but I maybe would swap out the red hub caps for something else

I work in a small town. Population in 2021 was 4206.

There is another FL5 here!

Can clearly tell the one in the back is lowered.
A lot more aggressive looking no ?
