Im finally ordering some rims , ive decided on rota slipstreams in gunmetal/polishedlip cause of price and want to stay 16in...(dailydriver on bad roads so dont want to change ride height or tire size)
anybody else out there have them? or seen any on a p5?? I figured the gm/polish would look best on my 03 black p5
 
Best friend has the black Slipstreams in 16 x 7 on a 2002 silver P5. They work very well, and are on the lighter end of the spectrum in terms of weight. You can get lighter, but for LOTS more money. The Rotas are a very good deal
 
no fitment problems??
Ive heard lotsa stuff about tires scrubbin on the rear of p5s..but one of the techs at the mazda dealer next door helped me find these an said would be no problem..guess I just got paranoid since i been waitin so long to find some!
thanx
 
Here's my P5 in 17" SubZeros. :) The center-bores will have to be machined to fit over our rear hubs.

None for the wheels, he does get the slightest tire-rub on the rear only during extreme autocross abuse, but that's with a 215/45-16 Azenis, which is wider than most people use in 16". His car is also lowered moderately, but not what you'd call "slammed." The rub is so slight you can't even tell unless he shows it to you. With 205/??-16 you should be A-OK.
