time to slamm your car to the ground!

Nice looking wheels there donaldtin. I think your in need of a drop there with those wheels!! by the way, what kind of rubber are you using?

*edit* nevermind, saw your sig ;)

[FLIPDADY]

Nice rims but I agree on the spring thing!

[ElPietro]

Is it just me, or is there very little difference between these rims other than I guess size and the little holes?

[Chuckie]

Elpietro: My sentiments exactly.

They are nice rims though.

Does the CX-7 ones fit? personally they\'d be more different.

i guess so.. the RX8 rims are just larger, the centre cap bows inwards to create the extra offset of +50mm, while the old one is +59.9mm.

as of the CX7 rims... really don\'t know if it fits or not... think there\'s another thread on it.. don\'t know if anyone tried it before

[Zaku_4]

wow

such a big difference. looks really good! though i have ot agree wiht others to lower your car, but just a bit to fill in wheel gap (but then would it even be worth it to drop it that little? lol)

[3GFX]

OK those look incredible, great call on choice, best part is they\'re Mazda!!!

If those fit does that mean the Mazda speed Magnesium rims for the RX-8 will fit ;)


AWESOME!!!

[Jetmech]

Look really good on your car Donald. Glad they worked out for you.

[Broli]

Alright, I agree they look a whole lot better than the stock 15\'s. But what about performance??
I know those puppies weigh about 22-23lbs a wheel! That\'s just the wheel! Not to mention resistence against the road thanks to the 225 rubber you wear now. Which means fuel consumption goes up as well... you see how much of a cascade effect this has when you up the wheels +3!!

Unless of course you don\'t care about any of this... then it just \"looks\" cool! :D
