Axis NE-O 17" in white. The offset they come with is like 39mm, but I had them milled down to 42mm to fit, and I also had the hub center diameter increased by 3mm on each wheel to clear the rear hubs. Basically, these wheels WILL NOT FIT if you're just trying to get them to work right out of the box, but I had to have them, and it all paid off.

Lowered with iON Sport Spec springs, no rubbing at all. 1mm clearance between tire and quarter panel.

You are right, that looks like it was worth it. Those wheels are hot

Oui, j'aime votre capot aussi.

It is a hood which I had to buy some time ago. http://www.slppowerproducts.com/tuner/en/index.htm
But SLP does not manufacture any more this hood, but another company the factory still. http://www.onderground-design.com/show_product.php?Make=23&Model=209&Gen=106&ID=4278

sorry for my english, but I speak only French and I use a software for the translation.

Yes, I like your hood too.

What size are your tires? The Racing Harts are 17x7 right?

Quelle taille sont vos pneus? Les cerfs d'emballage(Racing Harts) sont 17x7 bien?

Sorry for the bad French...I used an online translator. It's Fun!

Dsol pour le mauvais Franais... j'ai utilis un traducteur en ligne. C'est Amusement!

Peace!

Does it rub?? I have a set of 16x7 +40 coming but I have been getting mix review..some say it will rub, some say it won't...i have 205/45/16 tire not lower p5 please advise!

 

[chuyler1]

Your tires will be 1/2" larger in diameter (and obviously 10mm wider). If you don't lower you should be fine. However, if you do lower, you risk rubbing. Carmaniac is lowered on Eibachs I think (1.4" drop).

The stock 195s on a 7" wheel will bow inward. This is probably why he isn't rubbing. On a 205 you won't have that bow so the tire will be inline to rub if the car is lowered. This is why I'm trying to set up a group buy of the Rota GT3s in a +45 offset.

 

[melbourne_mp5]

Here's one from my P5's last trip to the track (Wheels are ADRs)... in line next to one of my dream cars... my buddies' black Spec V in the background...

 

[Alpinejwl]

yeah I read Rishie's fitment about 5 hours too late! I don't plan to lower but hopefully I won't rub too much. BTW, if I do rub, how should I roll the fender? (can't find a how-to roll fender)

[CoasterBoy]

So what you think of this one?

Tell me this isn't a sick looking ride...

 

[anarchistchiken]

That sure as hell does look sick. Someone needs to take it out back and put it out of it's misery.

What a ****** disgrace to Mazdas...

 

[chuyler1]

(pukey)

 

[CoasterBoy]

just a little confused...so why the negative response...why is it a disgrace?

 

[Alpinejwl]

i like it..

 

[Pretzellogic]

It's not excatly representative of the tastes of most of the people on here.

Mazdas are made to be driven. That monstrosity takes all the qualities that make a P5 special and sends them right down the tubes.

 

[CoasterBoy]

Ahhh...some of it is a little much like the lambo doors, but the stereo install and the seemless body kit looks pretty good. This guy was selling it on ebay about a month ago.

I just have a Black Mica with a 2.5 inch drop, 18" Enkei's, Nuegen cold air intake with a mazdaspeed exhaust. Still an everyday car for me and da wife...simplicity can be superior...
