There are essentially 3 different types of mazda3 stock rims: 5-spoke, snowflakes, 2010's.

2010 17s looks the best, I wouldn't mind rocking 2010 stockers if I wanted to stick to OEM

I'm rockin the older ones but really like em. I guess I'd like to see how the newer ones would fit on the older gens.

Between snowflakes and 2010's, I'd take the 2010's. Hate the snowflakes.
I still think the original 5-spoke design looks the best on the 3.

+100000. Definitely the cleanest.

I like how the old snowflakes look on the new 2010's actually look really nice. I'm a fan of the older ones that's all. And thanks Hitesk I thought I saw someone post it here but couldn't find it ;)

First choice...2010 GT 17x7's
Second choice...Snowflakes. These might be my first choice if they were 7 inches wide instead of 6.5
Third choice...5 spoke 17's

My first choice would also be the MX-5 Miata 17x7's...WISH I had a set of those...
