Wait wait wait..... the sport touring comes on 235/40 tires? That's some serious meat. Most non-Si civics came with 205 width tires. Thats quite the jump. I know it says "sport" in the name but sheesh! I think even the 12-15 Si only came on 225/40's.

The sport and the Si use the same wheel so prob the same tire too.

Nice and beefy..

Like santi said, the Si is the same.
The sport touring is a better car than the Si, in my opinion. Aside from the LSD, but a good driver makes more of a difference than that does. The rest of the tech/interior features (plus it's a hatch and the sedan Si and Coupe Si are FUGLY) are much better.

This.

I liked the sport touring even with the cvt over the new si. The wheels are wider than my 9th gen si which I'm a little jealous of, but overall I think it's a great car so far in the month or so I've had it.

Also I had to check and my rear emblem was not crooked so maybe someone was having a bad day at the factory when yours was built.

Our buddy in Florida has a crooked one too, but didn't notice until after it was swapped with the Type R H's. Ours will be soon.
