Spoon Civic Type R FL5 on lowered suspension and wheels

[hhkb]

Now manufactured in Japan specifically for Spoon. They are no longer made in Russia, as the originals were.

Guess I got these overnighted from Japan.

Looks great IMO. Can’t wait to throw a proper set dampers on it with remote reservoirs like JRZ or MCS.

I don't like it as much as I thought I would, and I'm an old school Spoon fan. I think that I'm just tired of black wheels. My first mod on my FL5 will be a new set of wheels in bronze or silver.

The nice thing is being able to buy these from Japan now.

Hmm wonder why ?

Looks so good. These might be my first choice in wheels followed by TE37.

Nothing wrong with that. I found the most limiting factors at the track were brakes and tires. Autox was the opposite where brakes/tires mattered least and suspension mattered most (basing this mostly on my experience in STU over the years).

Of course driver mod above all.

In my experience tires still matter the most in Autocross, then suspension, followed by brakes. I raw time plenty of people in my bone stock Si with just some sticky tires. In my Miata its fairly uncompetitive in class on my track tires vs the autocross set up I used to run (I'm just cheap and want my track day tires to last longer than one day.)

I understand what you mean by it... But these Jeeps they are done up. Are they really set up for off-road or is it more for looks?

Wish I was fluent in Japanese.

Both!
