Post The Best Pictures of Your Mazda

[not yellow]

me likey them wheels yellow!

do you know the weight of them? size? 17x?

thanks! they are 17x7, +55. same specs as the stock racing harts. they might be a few pounds lighter than the RHs, but when i was mounting them up they didn't feel all that different. they are both heavy as a stack of bricks!

Im not even a Protege guy but i have to agree, the NC wheels do look dope on your car, it's yellow.

I like this pic for some reason:

I'm thinking about painting my calipers yellow and getting colored wheel lugs. Any suggestions on the lug colors and any opinion on the caliper paint color choice?


Weaksauce - Good picture, but a few small suggestions: Play with the white balance to compensate for the yellow lighting and move the car slightly away from the curb so you don't chop off the bottom of the wheel/tire. Good pic though!

Dont go yellow its gonna stick out much IMHO, I'm gonna do mine black and put a white Mazda sticker on them... As soon as I get alloys

Caliper paint - use the G2 caliper paint!! it is the BEST caliper paint kit out there.

That's the thing, I want them to stand out, but that's it. I've never been much for flash and uber-attention grabbing, but a little snippet of color would help break up all the grey and silver...

I got the inspiration from a Porsche wallpaper on my computer at home. I love the relative stealth of the dark grey car, but then you see a little flash of yellow peaking out from behind the wheels... tiz teh secks!

I'll take a look for it!

But the Porsche has large discs and large calipers that fill out the wheel, MSP doesnt and because of that it doesnt look so good
Unless you're planning a big brake kit

 

[FlyinHawaiian]

Yeah yeah, I know... if only we had 4-pot solid calipers...

I'll do some p'shopping and see how it'll look first

Pic 1, Pic 2

(boom02)

3 options, either altspace:

1. Is giving a whole new meaning to the "Mazda cars drive you nuts" concept,
2. Ran out of ideas on how to photograph his RX-8
3. or had a very slow day

j/k (BTW, reminds me of that 6-wheel photochopped CX-7 roaming the webz a couple of yrs back)
