    Bulge!!!

    And yes, i'd get that bulge checked out by a tire shop before you make any extended trips.


    This is the bulge in question. I'm going to Honda tomorrow morning for the fried valve and I'll ask them about this too. If I can ride on it for a couple weeks I'll be happy, I'll be replacing that tire for another new one to put on the front once I get paid again.

      CD5 wheels look good!
      Give her a good clean especially some tire cleaner to restore the colour of the tires.

      I don't know much about bulges but you may have to replace the tire.
      Remember to give her a good wax and rust clean soon before winter hits, that is if you want her to last.

            I think honda will say replace. So the lugs are too long to fit centre caps?

              Honda said replace, so I replaced :P All is good now. Two brand new winter tires on the front.

              The lugs I had were for steel rims with hub caps, they had a little nipple on the top. I had to go find 16 half-size lugs to fit the thicker rims. The wrecker charged me $10 total, which is good in my books.

              I think the Vigor I have has short lugs like I picked up. I believe the rims are the same size, but they might be 205 65/R15 rather than the 195 60/R15 on the Accord.

              Either way I had a good experience at the dealership (as I always do). Hopefully tomorrow will be a nice day and I can get some nice photos taken with the rims.

                  'Stock' wheels are in the process of being sold I figure since these rims aren't in the best condition I might as well use them for winter, also since they came with winters on already it seems convenient.

                  Is there a thread/site that has a visual list of all the OEM rims that fit our cars? I tried to go through the rim thread but it's mostly aftermarket. I want pure Honda... at least for now.

                          I think I'll have to. I did clean them up quite a bit yesterday, but ultimately the curb rash (scars rather) need to be fixed. After winter I'll properly restore them. I need to figure out what to do about the caps also, they too are in rough shape.

                                WTF, Phoenix Red with GREY interior?! I thought they only came black. Can't be my eyes fooling me.

                                BTW, that is a beautiful coupe. Beside my work, there's a nice Phoenix Red coupe 5 speed just sitting....has 286k and needs a new clutch. That's it. Damn guy won't sell it, even when I went to see him with a wad of cash and a bill of sale in my hand.
