Two reactions.

1. Wheels are awesome.

2. I feel so sorry for your neighbors across the street. They've got junk in the driveway and have to stare at your MCS every day. What torture!

 

Sorry, I gave up waiting for the pictures to download.

 

RTFO, That looks bad ****. Looks real clean. Not too flashy, almost stealthy.

very nice driveway
love ur car, very clean
love the color of ur roof

i am very biased on wheels as most people will tell you on here, so i think they look ok. very cheap looking in my humble opinion. sort of a pep boys look and not a brand name

then again anything less than 3 piece rims dont satisfy me

nice car though :smile:

 

cool wheels

Okay, I'll be the first to ask:

who makes em, how much do they weigh, what do they cost?
what tires are you running?

what wheels were on the car before the upgrade?
how has it changed the car's handling?

 

Are those the Motegi MR7's? I was thinking about getting those but a lot of civics around here have them so I changed my mind. They look great with your color combo!

 

Greetings!!

Great looking wheels, especially with the color combo !!!

Who is the manufacturer and what is the weight of the wheels ??

Their prices are good with package deals and free shipping. But customer service blows. They only wanna talk to you if your ordering something.
They came mounted and balanced... sort of. Two of the wheels were not balanced correctly. Tire preasure was over 40psi in one and less than 25psi in another.

Handling has changed quit a bit. Excelleration is much better from a stand still. And so far the pirelli run flats were actually a bit grippier than these ES 100's. Maybe I still need to break them in a bit more. The ride is much smoother. Un-even pavement dosen't jar the car anymore.
The biggest improvement has been a decrease in understeer. I'm running 34psi in the rear and 31 in the front. The car is much more neutral now. I was running the same psi with the runflats and could not get the *** end to swing for nothing.

I noticed a bit of rubbing over the weekend when I launched (not really) over a bridge. It was really just a sudden dip in the road. My car is not lowered.. but I would not mind a .75 drop.

 

I think they look very sharp.

 

I think the color combo is wicked, almost armored limo reminicent.

Your overall look is perfect- completely matching in theme. Just right. Don't change anything.
Drive it around alot to enjoy. Make your neighbors even more jealous.
