Default Pic request 96-00 Civic with Eibach springs.

Im lookin at making some changes : https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1480046

I cant make up my mind of the wheels I have picked out if I want 16" or 17". Also Pro-Kit or Sportline. I searched but cant seem to find any pictures that truly represent what I want. Any help is appreciated. Ill continue to search, thanks.

Sportlines with oem shocks, they work and I am getting kyb agx's in a couple months. Drop per eibach is 1.8" inr front and 1.7" in rear and it rides like a dream!

hmm, thats a lil low for me (everyone has their own thing), but its still looks good. How long have the stock shocks lasted for you? Ive heard both, they blow right away and that they last for awhile. The link in my first post takes you to another thread I made. Near the bottome is a picture of a wheel, what do you think of it? Im leaning towards 16"s vs 17"s. Whats your opinion?

PS, would a bigger wheel make the car sit higher at all, because yours is close to where I like it just a tad higher. Also do you have a camber kit?

Honestly, 1.8" drop isn't low at all for a civic IMHO. I don't scrape on speed bumps or most inclines/declines, you just have to be aware that you're driving a lowered vehicle. I have had my springs on for about 4-5 months and everything rides really great, I just want to get my kyb's on along with my summer wheels.

I would say 16's go great with the body line/wheel well for civics but that is me. Honestly, if you like those wheels then get them, as for me, I don't like them at all.

Being the color that my car is its hard to find something I like. I dont think that one looks that bad, but to each of his own. The picture makes them look bad, I see them everyday at work. Do you have a camber kit on yours?

Come on who else has pictures?

Green goes with almost anything! I would say some gunmetal wheels with a polished lip or a fully polished wheel or even black wheels, tons of options.

As gay as it sounds you could get some rota's for 400-500 and you would get a better looking whee,l IMO, than those motegi's. If not, save up about 800-1000 for some nice wheels and call it a day.

Still lookin for 96-00 Coupes with either Pro-Kit or Sportline...Some sportlines i have seen tuck the tires, others not so much. After the pro-kit settles how much of a drop should I expect? I want like a 2finger gap w/out coilovers.
