hey guys, I purchased a black mica 08.5 GS Sedan a few months ago, and I've decided i wanted to personalize my ride a bit.
I'm looking into some rims for next spring but I'm really not sure what looks the best. I kind of like the black rim look to match the colour of my car, possibly with a chrome lip.
I found a few pics on some random sites, but I cant seem to find information on any of these rims anywhere.

If anyone has any other suggestions, feel free to post 'em. Just keep in mind that I'm a student and I'm kinda short on the cash so the cheaper the better.

Do a search on the site. You need to ensure the offset and bolt paterns work for you when looking at aftermarket wheels for your ride. Those links you provided look pretty good. Sorry, no idea what they are.

IKON GT6's ... Gloss black with Chrome Lip. Universal 5 bolt pattern
Proper offset and size for mazda 3 or protege. The tires are not included cause the rubbers are different from a protege5 to a mazda3. You'd be able to get away with more sidewall then I would on my pro.
Rims are mint. No curb rash (at all) and clean of scuffs, scrapes or scratches, honestly they look new. If you're looking to pick up something this year, we could work out something.
Most of the guys here know me and I just try to help people as much as I can. If you want to see them in person, I'm open to that too.
Cheers.
