Like the title says, I'm looking for a set of good used Mazda accessory wheels that are used on the Canadian Yozora edition M2. Mazda offers these wheels as an accessory everywhere except the U.S. (of course). Just wondered if anyone had a set to sell. Here is a photo of what I'm looking for:

I got them. They bend easily. I have one bent one, and another guy on here bent two of his before upgrading. Don't spend good money on new units.
 
I wish I had read your post a few days ago as I was able to find a dealer who would order them for me. "They bend easily" how disappointing!! These wheels are not cheap to buy new, about $278 apiece...ouch! I love the look of the wheels and they really enhance the look of the 2. What caused the wheels to bend? Curb hits or potholes or just spirited driving?

>$278 a wheel

HOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
 
I have no idea what actually caused the bends. I haven't done anything stupid with car. No accidental curb jumping, no crashes. I've hit pot holes, but they were the hits all felt the same as others I've hit in other cars (that were heavier as well) and this my first experience with a bent wheel. Bent lips I've had, but never a section of wheel bent in.

I do drive my car "spiritedly" often. But I've treated all my other cars similarly. I'd say just be a little more careful than you would with a set of regulars wheels. Dodge the pot holes (as best you can anyways) and keep an eye out for or rough patches.

I can honestly say I don't know when it happened. I found it by chance during a meeting with couple of other guys on this site.

"Weak" may be a harsh term to use, but just be mindful and you may be fine.
 
I've got my set of four. I'm the guy who bent two of his. They aren't badly bent, only enough to feel a bit of a shake under braking. I did have a couple dings in the finish. I'd sell them for not a lot of money.
