well i have a mazdaspeed 3. and ive come across a pretty good deal on some rims and i was wondering if this fitment was physically possible.
these arent the exact rims but same rim.
the ones im getting are
Front: 17x8 with 32+ offset
Rear: 17x8.5 with 25+ offset
yes they are staggered :lol:
now before yall go apes**t on the offset, rubbing issues, and suspension geometry, i am half aware of what im getting myself into. i was just wondering if these would fit even if i pulled/rolled my fenders, stretched tire, did anything.
and also i will NOT be running these rims daily due to need for a drop and messed up suspension geometry. at least thats my plan when i get them. when i do get them i will be restoring them, repainting, and getting them looking mint and buying these lugnuts for them and getting suspension before i put them on.
i know the offset is somewhat insane. yall can call me a dumbass for even attempting this kind of fitment. yall can hate all yall want because i dont care. im just trying a new look for this car. i rarely see mazdas let alone mazda3's and ms3's with low offset. and im kinda going for that aggressive look. =D
ex of low offset
Edit: and i forgot, does any one know how the ms3 wheel bearings hold up? cuz ive heard with wrx's and other subby's their bearings are weak and tend to wear quickly with low offsets.
