I'm hoping maybe someone can help me out here. Long story short, I have a bent rim and need a replacement.
Went to check out Carcone's today, and apparently their wheel database calls out the wrong wheel for my car (one that looks like an 04-06 wheel). For those of you who really know your Mazda 3's, they changed the 15" alloy's between 04-06, and 07. The 04-06 15" has 5 smooth spokes, and the 07's have 5 rounded/tapered spokes.
Mazda was nice enough to quote me $437 for an OEM rim which I don't want to pay if I don't have to.
Does anyone know where I might have some better success? If it helps, the OEM part number (given to me by Mazda) is 9965N16050
Your help is appreciated!!!
