MS3 Owners: Show us your wheels

[sirgatti]

Pretty simple. If you have aftermarket wheels or custom painted stock wheels on your MS3, post a picture of your car.

Be sure to include: the name of the wheels, diameter, width, offset, and if you are lowered, tell us how. That way there won't be a bunch of people quoting groups of pictures over and over again asking for sizes and other information.

Let's try and make this an epic sticky...

Just putting this out there, but does anyone else think that aftermarket wheels tend to look smaller than the stockers?

Don't get me wrong, they look great.

I think it has to do with the drop. As far as my view goes...the wheels look smaller when the can is higher off the ground.

Not sure if RX8 wheels are considered aftermarket, but its different than stock.

My tires are 225/45/18, and the wheels are 8" wide on a stock suspension. The profile size of those tires are slightly larger than stock (I like the beefier look) and there are some slight rubbing issue in the back while loaded. The rubbing occurs against some of the plastic in the middle of the fender wall, and I think the problem will "fix itself" (i.e. rub enough to give itself clearance).

Great thread here, I can't get enough MS3's with wheels.

If anyone knows, I'd like to put 225/45/18s on this setup. Does anyone know if it would be a problem?

Take a look at my post on this thread. I have that tire size, and there are some rubbing issues. However, I've heard from other people with simular set ups that they don't have rubbing. I have a feeling that once the tires are worn down a little more, and the rubbing spots are "rubbed" out it won't be an issue for me.
