Put 18s on your Si and lower it.....trust me they won't look too small. 19s and 20s are too big and end up jacking with the car's handling and throwing off the speedo as well.

Eibach Pro Kit springs are about a 1" drop front and 1.2" rear. Nothing drastic and it won't cause any problems.

Rico is right. You may "like" the big rim look, but when you have a rim that is bigger than the outside diameter of the original tire, it starts to look foolish and makes the car worse than it was before.

18's are a safe bet on the Si.

Keep in mind also that there's more to wheels sizing than just the face diameter. I agree with the other members here in which 18" would be the biggest wheels that this car can accommodate.

I've seen 19s it's not all that bad but obviously if you pick a shitty tire size for it won't be too nice. Then again they we're 19s TE37s with a lip so they did sort of look like 18s.

Lexani's and giovannas yo.

In all seriousness though, with a drop you can have 17's fit in the wells.

are you trying to say you don't want to follow the stereotypical way of modding your car. because that pic in your avatar says otherwise.

anyway....18's are the biggest and your pushing it with those. like everyone else said....17's with a drop would do you right.

I'm sure you can throw some 20s on there. You just have to play with tire sizes. Other than that you should be cool with that and be able to roll with 300's, chargers and dodge magnums NO PROBLEM!

I'll stick with my 15s.

this sounds ridiculous coming from someone who wants to put 20" on an si. If you put 20" or 19", it's gonna ride like **** and stand higher than stock. You may want to consider getting another car
