Hello,,

i currently drive a 2012 mazda 3 sport 2.0L skyactive GS.... i am having difficulty deciding which rims to get.. and i have been searching for 2 years and now i narrowed it into 4 choices

im thinking between these 4 choices (Rims and tires included)

enkei EKM3 $1600
Enkei GW8 $1300
Dai Autobahn $1400
Dai Passion $1300

i need your expertise on this one so that i can decide and also are the given prices fair?... i would very much appreciate your help...

thanks a lot guys

Looks like a good price, but that all depends on the tires. Probably budget tires.
And as for rims, it's your personal choice.

Size of the wheels would help as well

And I agree with Hyperion that for those prices the tires probably aren't anything special

I like the EKm3 wheels

But the passion doesn't look bad as well, but that wheel looks like it meeds to be nice and wide

You're about to get what you pay for.

I really like the look of the enkei EKM3...as for price, I'd pay $1600 and feel secure with the decision because of how much I like the look

Keep in mind I'm no expert on the matter because I've never bought aftermarket rims....my opinion is based strictly on the pictures I saw online and the price to me was justifiable possibly out of inexperience in this type of purchase

Cheers!

Die autobahn & EKM3 get my vote!

Just posted rims/tires for sale in classifieds. Not any of the makes you mentioned, but, half the price. Check it out if that is a route you would consider.

I've had the Dai Autobahn Matte Black in 18's for the last month, pretty solid rim so far.
