rota d2's.. trying something new,, opinions PLZ

im looking into getting some new rims.. but i wnt them too look different then everyone elses ... im wanting too get some rota d2's like this...

but i want too do something different with them.. i talked too the guys at wheeldude who are an amazing help and this is wat i wanted too do...

i want too paint the inside of the rim completely black rivets and all.. but i want the lip of the rim too be color matched too my car which is :true red: .." the whole chrome part".. wat do you think?..

this is where i got my idea..

it would be something totally different.. and unique..

opinions recommended please... thanks

time attack style u mean? it'd be kool but some people say they're tired of their time attack wheels already

no not a pinstripe... a full lip of true red too match the car.. i know alot of people have the pinstripe and thats one reason that i dnt want "just a pinstripe".. i want a good full lip too match the paint.. plus i think a nice gloss black center and a true red lip would look pretty cool on those rims.. just my 2 cents, but id like too know more opinions b4 i go about this project with my soon to be rims.

personaly i don't like rims with lips just due to the fact that it takes away from the size of the rim. 18's look like 16's. but to each his own. Haven't seen any color match rims that looked even halfway right since the 3rd gen camaros.

 

[MAZDARacing2007]

i know wat ur saying about the rims looking smaller, right now i have some 18's with no lip and everyone always thinks they are bigger... but the offset on the mazdaspeed 3 ranges from 45-52 so theres not gonna be that big of a lip anyways.. and if they look like 17's thats fine.. but if i get the lip painted red, im going too send them my paint code and they are going to try and get it as close as possible

i'd like to see em when they are done.

those look like the old WORK wheels my buddy had on his MR2. Pretty sexy I must say

 

[MAZDARacing2007]

yea they look like the work meisters which i would love too have but the price is a BIG difference im sure you already know.

I had the royal black D2s on my prelude. From what I've heard, even with 18's, there are brake clearance issues on the D2 with the MS3/MS6. Something to look into...

NOT YOUR EXACT WHEEL BUT YOU GET THE PICTURE it could look good, I've seen a few white G37'S with this type of setup. but alot nicer wheel. and it looked damn good. it'd be interesting to see this setup on a speed.

you mainly see these on high end sports cars/luxury but it could work maybe?

 

[wisniaPl]

but im talking about those wheels can you get them with righ offset and hub diameter fo ms3??

 

[MikeHTally]

I like red lips. Oh, you meant your wheels. Sorry, my bad. (lick)

 

[MAZDARacing2007]

but im talking about those wheels can you get them with righ offset and hub diameter fo ms3??

yes you can i called and asked the guys at wheeldude.com

 

[wisniaPl]

nice I might get gold ones in future

 

[SHAGwagn]

They wont fit the MS3 which is why its not in the mazda3 section at wheeldude.com

I asked about the wheel and he said it does not clear the calipers. Sorry to burst ur bubble, but there is a reason why no one else on here has them...ill admit i liked them also.

good luck

before you mod a wheel be sure to add in the cost. you might decide to look at a more expensive wheels just the idea of a cheap bastard.

 

[wisniaPl]

I would like to get oz superturismo but they dont make them anymore

do whatever you feel like you should. Who cares if others think that time attack is played out, its ultimately your decision, not theirs. There will always be a nayser somewhere.
