POLL: Mazdaspeed3 or RX8 wheels?

[maple_leaf]

Personally, I think the 5 looks weird with dropped suspension...(dunno)

 

[tillyspeed81]

would it be possible to use the mazdaspeed3 springs? That way I could get rid of wheel gap and still be driveable....

I'm sure it was me... I live an exit away from Landess. Where abouts are you?

I live between landess and piedmont.

fo sho the rx-8 rims i like the openness of them .(rockon)

RX8 rims are the sh!t

That 5 looks ridiculous IMO. I'm sure it rides GREAT with either set of wheels. Better strap everything down so it doesn't bounce out the windows.

Speed3 or RX-8

Yo i like the RX-8 rims. Where and how did you get the drop? I would like to do the same but can't seem to find springs for the 5. Also are the tail lights tinted? the car looks awsome zoom zoom..(bowdown)

Both looks great, but the RX-8 looks fantastic! Black or Gunmetal paint???

I think you live by Landess (McDonald). I was behind your back a weeks ago (lol2)

Wish I had both rims.....(band). I like the RX-8 rims better but would also settle for 3speed gunmetal ones.

Neither if you plan to stretch the tires like that. Looks like ass.

With the right tires either would look great though.

 

[lestat13]

Oh man, tough question. 50.1% MAZDASPEED3s, 49.9% RX-8s? (nervous)

I was thinking 49.9% MS3 50.1% RX8

Make it hard enough for you?? Lemme spice it up, what about painting the RX8s or powdercoating back to go with your tails? (jerkit)

I'm sure this was already decided long ago... but I would have voted for the speed 3 rims. I think the "fuller" look goes better with the 5.

 

[atito]

Love the look - i wanna get the MZS 3 wheels too. What springs and shocks did you go with? your car looks really clean. love the set up and wanna know what your running.

TIA

The RX8s don't though.(wink)

All good... well, I did change out the rear tires to 225/40s which closed the rear fender gap a bit. I'll snap more pics the next time I wash the ride.

 

[5phreak]

I'd like to have a set of the RX-8 wheels. They look great.

I like the RX-8 wheels better, but that 35 series sidewall is way too short. Just looks goofy. I would go RX-8 wheel with the taller tire.
