17' on h&rs

[blkspeed]

im thinking about this set up, only issue im having is not being able to find any ms3's with this set up. all im getting is with 18' rims... i would want 18' but i want to save money, so anybody have any pictures with this set up only?

curious about different tires sizes on 17' on a lowered car with H&R springs

HOLY s***! That's one jacked up car! I don't think anyone even makes 17' or 18' wheels!!!

Hope this helps you...I think those are enkies...




BUwaahahahahhaahahahhaa....

Sorry, I re-read the OP, so this is a better example...I know it's not an MS3, but it's the best I could do on such short notice...

 

[Jon MS3]

maybe you could photoshop the wheels off of this...

 

[Biggs]

There is a standing pic so you can see wheel gap. Tires are 225/45/17 Hoosier A6's

It's all in good fun man...Seriously, the wheels will look fine, no matter which drop you are on.

The wheels will look smaller if they are a darker color than your car. That's just your eyes messing with you. There are many examples of cars on this forum that look phenomenal with 17"s instead of 18". Look at the 6/MS6, protege/MSP, etc.--you probably already have, but just helping out.

well ive been sitting all day looking for the right picks and i found some thanks to the show us your wheels thread

now im sure some have hate on cheap rims but hard times so i was looking at these two

Wait a few days or so... notyellow has 17" Miata rims on his MS3 and is currently dropping on H&R Coils.

17" Racing Harts w/ H&R Coilovers... it isn't lowered all the way though due to winter.

Edit - I just realized you said H&R springs, not coilovers... sorry!

 

[Rez]

^^^That's a very nice example^^^ hmmmmmm...coilovers....ahhhhh.

As long as you like the rims, and you don't go into the poorhouse because of them, then it shouldn't matter who makes them.

Don't get me wrong though...a quality wheel manufacturer is still the way to go. They have the experience, engineering, and warranty to back up their product.

GL with the future purchase. If your car is black...+1 for the black rims.

I do but I figured you might like an example of a lowered MS3 with 17s on it.
