If you could find any information on that TSB and post it, it would be of great help to a lot of people on this thread. As soon as I read that I started looking for it and still can't find anything. If you know where it is can you please post a link? Thanks.

Honda has not yet written the bulletin about this problem. It will probably not be written until August - according to what I learned today from my dealer.

I did a search and found the TSB that I had read earlier. Here is is for your reference:
 
Honda Strut TSB
 
After reading this, I don't believe that it is your problem as this is written for a CRV. However, this manufacturing defect is why the dealer really needs to take a very active role in investigating/resolving your situation.

I also have a 2006 honda civic dx w/ navigation that I have owned since march 07. It developed a bad vibration so i thought that the ballance had gone. Took it to my normal tire shop and there was very bad wear on the rear tires, cupping/scalloped on the inside edge. They said to take it to honda. Honda said it was probably just alligment, but it was dead on. So they said I must have skidded very hard and flat spotted a tire. No drastic breaking or skidding has happened. They say there is nothing wrong but i need to replace all four tires due to excessive wear at 17000 miles. Any help or other suggestions?

Have you had any luck? my 06 civic dx has vary bad tire wear mostly in the rear and the local honda dealer says there is nothing wrong. With only around 17k mile it should not need a new set of tires. do i need to get honda involved or sell the car since they say there is nothing wrong? Any advise would be great because i am getting no where with the dealer.

Excessive Road Noise on a 2007 Honda Civic LX by rperreau

Just purchased a new 2007 Honda Civic LX. The car seems to be well built and rides very well. However, when I took the car on the highway, I notice a great deal of road noise. Could it be the OEM tires, Goodyear Eagles RS?? Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Will 18" Honda Factory Perforamnce wheels work on an EX Sedan?
 
This link at College Hills Honda states that they are only for the Si.

However, here's a link from someone in the photo gallery that shows an EX coupe with the 18" HFP wheels:

yes, that's mine, and yes they will fit....however....
note that the HFP kit includes several things other than just the wheels and part of that is the suspension changes that lower the car a bit (iirc ~1").
 
you can fit 18" IF you do the suspension mods as well. But I don't think you can just swap the wheels. Obviously I could be wrong but that's my understanding (the dealer did the mod prior to me buying it).
 
btw, here's my gallery in CarSpace:
