I just like the stealthier look of the 2nd choice.

Either one - I had gold wheels on my second car before anyone else caught on. I\'d probably go with anthracite wheels on the blue as my first choice. Just make sure you have an outer polished lip otherwise it\'ll look lame.

Personally I wouldn\'t do either as they\'re both played out IMO, but if I had to choose #2 would get my vote.

#1 All the way!

Ultimately it\'s your choice.

1. Go with number two.
2. If you can\'t decide do one side of your car with the bronze rims and the other in black.
3. If people make fun of you it serves you right for listening to an online cleric.
4. I think you should go with number 2 and not risk eternal damnation.

I\'m not giving you that penny. It\'s the principal of the matter.

whose pressuring anyone?
we\'re merely pointing out that your choice of rims is only prefered by 21.7% out of the 23 who have taken to poll.

I think black or dark rims look like ass, but that\'s just my opinion. I guess on a black car it wouldn\'t be so bad, but most pictures I see, all I can think is why not just use your winter steelies all year round.

Blue 3 with blue rims (http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?topic=52536.0)

WB crazy (http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2127462)

Not too bad almost color matched.

The blue matching rims are a bit too much for me.. Theres no contrast anymore..
I understand black and blacking out your car to be stealthy. This I don\'t know, I don\'t like too much.

I still say the stock rims are really nice.

Many rims people add look great, but are they actually better looking than stock? Or just different? In some cases I think it\'s just different, and not necessarily nicer.

\"If you go with gold rims, they will definately look great with the car.\"
This was my first preference, until a wrx buddy of mine told me I\'d be looked down upon by other wrx owners and be flamed as a \'poser\'. LOL. So my future plans have been changed for a set of bronze rims, similar to the Rota Boosts (which I might purchase after this winter).

In regards to the photochopped pics you have posted up, I would recommend the Anthracite option. There\'s something odd about those gold rims on a WB. I\'m not sure why, but I\'m not feeling it.

Just my 2cents from a WB owner. either or, I\'m sure you won\'t regret your decision. :)
