Be certain that those wheels accept the Tire Pressure Sensors.

Many aftermarket wheels don't.

The Tire Rack has wheels that do and that's all they sell for our cars. They install the TPS units before they mount and balance the tires. They use the Hunter 9700 force balancing system, which is the best their is.

No, I don't work for them...

Also, someone above claimed that the offset for the MS3 is 48. It isn't. The stock offset is 52.5 mm.

I'm strongly considering the ASA AR1 (18" X 7.5" with a 52mm offset) for my Speed 3. They're $156 per wheel, which is very reasonable. They're also strong and relatively light.

what is the bolt pattern and offset for the ms3?
5x114 +48

The stock Speed3's offset is + 52.5 mm.

You should stay as close as possible to that when choosing an aftermarket wheel in order to preserve the correct suspension geometry. Altered offsets can result in "darty" behavior, particularly during medium to hard braking.

Wheels with different offsets will physically fit, but that doesn't mean they're correct for the application.

All is forgiven as I still drool all over the keyboard when I see your sig with those very nice OZ's. :D

My choice is for the hyperblack.
