2009 RX8 R3 Wheels

[Fobio]

I've been really digging these lately...what do you guys think? They are 19" btw...

I like too, but I like the car even more haha.. maybe someone can photoshop it onto ms3.

Since these rims are still relatively new, I think they will be very very expensive & hard to find.

[S.F.W.]

very nice wheels, but running 19's on a 3? That's over the top..

[condor888000]

Awesome rims, but too big IMO. I don't even like most 18's...

[Fobio]

yeah...it is pretty extreme...a Mazda3 will have to run 225/35/19 tires (or rubber bands) and a MS3 will have to run 235/35/19.

I can picture a CWP MS3 with these rims and NextMod stickers on it...hehe...but maybe these aren't bling/JDM enough...

Photchop anyone?

[Fobio]

to those who have responded "They don't fit on the 3's"...how come?

These are 8" wide wheels...same as the regular RX8's...

[Unoriginalusername]

perhaps they meant they don't fit as in appropiate vs. technically fit? I like the car and the wheels

ah I see...

yeah, there's a possibility that they don't fit the LOOK for the MZ/MS3...can someone photochop these onto a 3 sedan/hatch?

[FLIPDADY]

Go for it! Lightweight and they are forged! Fitment should be just fine for your Speed3.

Now I'm assuming you're getting them used right? Just asking cause they go for big

$$$$$$$$$!!!!

[Fobio]

yeah...used...prolly mean at least a year from now seeing that guys started taking delivery of the R3 in June of this yr...but sure will keep an eye out...

but really...who needs another set of RX8's...right? ;-) so just more wondering aloud...

[Zoom Zoom Boy]

Very nice. Would love a set of these on my black speed3. However, i do tend to agree that 19" rims might be a little bit of overkill on the 3, however, would be nice to see what they look like.

[Cardinal Fang]

I've wondered aloud myself.

I've seen these rims in the showroom and I love them. They have the "Shinka" like finish and they kick ass. I could have sworn they were 18" though. But I stand corrected. 19" may be a bit large for our cars but I'd love to see these what this looks like.

Photo-Chop anyone?

[Flagrum_3]

Seen them in the showroom also and the photo doesn't do them justice...Hawt!!

I think the 19s would be fine on the MS3, 18s seem small on our car plus with the finish of the rims they won't seem as big, imo.

[condor888000]

Seriously? I find 18's HUGE on the car. Way too big, 17's are just right IMO.

Thanks Mleblond! Oh, these rims look sweet indeed on the 3's. I want them for my Speed3 now and I can put the 18" rims on the wife's hatch.

[Fobio]

*squirt*

matt...now I have to clean and sanitize my monitor...thanks buddy!

[ICEBOX]

I like but I wouldn't run 19's. I am only running 18's on my TSX. I will likely run 18s on the 3 next year.

[bluemazda3]

those wheels are sick... match just about any colour..
