Motegi mr116's

[YayoDeals]

I'm looking to get some Motegi mr116's, not sure if to stick with stock size 17" or go 18" or 18". I just bought a 2013 Civic Si Sedan (Black).

Also trying to sell my stock wheels, IDK where to list them though.

New to the Si world btw.

Personally I would stick with 17". You can list your stock wheels here as well as Craigslist.

Agreed I'd stick 17 inch 18's only fill in nicely with mesh style wheels IMO and only if you slam your car

Keep my stock tires? I do plan on buying an eibach pro kit, I don't want too big of a drop. I do want the tires and wheels to look good with the drop though.

Unless you don't like your stock tires, save yourself some money and keep them. You're going to have to have the tires dismounted anyways to switch over the TPMS sensors, unless you run without them. The Pro Kit with 17" wheels looks good. Here's a great thread to refer to for suspension options: http://9thcivic.com/forum/threads/2012-honda-civic-suspension-options-with-product-info-links.6860/

I just feel for some reason that too much of the sidewalls are showing on those tires, it could just be me though. Maybe less walls would look better, or would I have to go with a bigger wheel?

I wouldn't go less tyre personally

Those are stock tires; 215/45. I wouldn't go any less than 45. If you want less looking sidewall go 18". This is informative: http://9thcivic.com/forum/threads/tires-and-wheel-sizes-all-possibilities.7432/#post-164456

Forget prokit go skunk 2 sprigs if you really want that gap filled in you will have a tiny tire gap it looks wicked even with stock wheels I'll get a pic up

Nice Wheels! I used to have a set of 16's on my 2010 Civic. Looks fantastic on white.

That drop doesn't look bad. I've been online all day researching, and I'm so confused as to what exactly I'm trying to do with the look of the car. How would the stock rims look powder coated or plasti dipped? & would you guys choose to do it in white or red (only two colors I would do it in)?
