rumour has it you are supposed to put the donut on the back and move the rear wheel up front to save the LSD...

Sorry to hear though

I hope your LSD is ok.
I thought manual stated that cannot have different size tire diameter on either front end?

it does say in the owners manual to put the spare on the back and put one of the back tires on the front so it doesnt hurt the lsd

True.

With the stock jack, can you lift the whole side at one time? Otherwise how do you swap the front and rear? I'm sure Honda wouldn't want us to do that anyway.

Right after I took the pictures of my tire my battery on my camera died. Overall yesterday wasnt the best day of my life. The more I think about it in order to get the tire to the rear I would have to take the flat off, put the donut on the front, jack up the back, take that rim off, put the flat tire on that. Jack the front back up and put the good rear on the front and then jack the back back up and put the donut on.

My head is spinning just thinking about it.

or you could leave the flat on, jack it up, put the spare on the rear, jack up the front and then put the rear tire on there....much easier than what you guys are saying lol

Wow I am f***ing slow today. And to think I interviewed like 5 people today. They're fuXored.

I'm gonna start asking that in my interviews. How do you change a front tire if the manual says the small spare has to go in back?

Well if you use the front jack point it will easily lift the whole side of the car. Well it does with my OEM jack....

I've done this many times to rotate front &gt; rear etc...
