Go with the Motegi's, they will look amazing! I'm looking for a pic of a similiar wheel design on the same colour car you have.

well thnx guyz for the feedback i appreciate it.. im still kinda iffy.,,, im kinda going for the jdm look. motegis would fit that category , but then i dont wanna make the wrong move and buy the motegis and end up looking halfass., thing i like bout those rims is the polish lip cuz it really sticks out but it also makes the rim look a little smaller, ..... :/

There are some brands in general you should stay away.

Personally, I wouldn't buy it. Regardless of what style of wheels they sell.

Gold w/ polished lip

The motegis look nice, but I think your SiR looks better with your current rims,
