the convex will allow you to see more on the sides, but things look smaller in the rear window (like it looks further away.) at least thats the case in my friends 06' si. and the wider the mirror you get, its going to block your visor's from going down.. not a big deal, but an inconvenience. i personally have a 270mm flat.

yeah, go with the 270mm flat, because the convex mirrors are just plain weird....

they get annoying.

i have the broadway 300mm convex. trust me its better than flat. you can see ppl in the sides. With the flat you cant.. also, its better so you wont be looking over your shoulder all the time..

Depends what you want out of it-if you want to be able to make full use of your sun visors, you will need to get a 240mm as it just clears and no adjustments are needed whenever you need to use your visors. Drwback is you dont get as much vision field as with the wider mirrors. I personally have the 240mm untinted flat and a 300mm blue tint flat. I love the blue tint at night when vehicles are behind you with brights lights on, howver the untinted gives better visibility. I ahve always gone with the flat mirrors as well-I think the flat mirrors are true distance and the convex show objects sloser than they are just like your side mirror
