Default Hi Everyone

Hi im matt, and im driving a 03 Civic Ex 2 door, silver, i took off the stock spoiler

just wondering if i could get some advice, im not a big car guy

i want to get some rims, and the 2 side door windows tinted

i kind of want it to look like the car in the picture just without the body kit and spoiler

im pretty sure they are g racing seki rims

i guess 17 is the smallest they make, so what type of tire would i be looking to get and how much would it cost?

and how much to tint the side windows to the legal tint limit, and what is the limit, in cali?

Thanks for reading

Matt,
Welcome to the forum.I personaly don't like the style of those rims.Look around somemore and you might want to check the forsale/fortrade section of this forum If you haven't total made up your mind.I personaly perfer 16's.Sounds like you want smaller rims also so I would suggest pass on the rims.Window tint I personaly would say $110 for the tint 2 sides and 1 back window.The Ca law is no darker than 27% with a 4inch visor.Click on this for a link to state lawson window tint http://www.tintdude.com/atoh.html.

The tread life depends on the tire, if you go for a racing tire for instance, you're looking at a low tread life. The key is to balance performance with treadlife. You can get more info at www.tirerack.com.
