Pic with the new wheels:

16" 2008 Mazda 3 stock alloys

Looks good....what are the specs for them again? I remember giving you some info but for the 17's.

Maybe for the best Jeff. I have left Mary's car pretty much alone. Some minor stuff, upgraded radio, upsized the summer tires, Marcy Intake. She likes it the way it is. Not a fight I want to start.

I hear ya Bruce. Biggest change I've made are the summer wheels. Right now I'm running the stock 205/55 but since they are 16x7.5 I'll upsize them when it comes time to buy new or try to talk her into letting me have them for my car. lol

Not sure but if I remember correctly they're 16x7.5 with a 50 offset. Pretty damn close to stock. Maybe a little more offset than the P5 wheel

 

[CTt3P5]

Nice...same specs as my wife's RX8's. Stock P5 wheels are a +50 but only 16x6.

It was noticeable to me. After I had the front fenders pulled there was more gap than I wanted so i measured the gap and decided on 5mm spacers.

Here's similar angles before and after the 5mm spacers.

Before front fender roll. Wrong side but you get the idea.

Before, with fender roll and pull.

After 5mm spacer.

Looks Awesome ChefSpot....cant wait to see it in person on friday

Upsize would be a 215/50-16. not too many tires in that size. only 4 on tirerack.

If that was directed at me I do have an authentic JDM Garage Vary front grille on the way. Hopefully it will be here within the next week.

Take those side molding off when the rents aren't looking!

 

[Chefsp0t]

Oh they are coming off soon. He has a nice black pinstripe with a mazda emblem in it that will look a lot better without the moldings.

Upsize would be a 215/50-16. not too many tires in that size. only 4 on tirerack.

Since they are 7.5" wide I'm looking to upgrade to a 225/50/16 which discount tire list as an option to the stock size.

Staying on topic.
