Post The Best Pictures of Your Mazda

[FunkyBuddha]

Low is functional to a point. I do agree that there is low for a performance value and then there is low for looks. The Slammed Thread is a bit of proof of that. (No offense!)

Being low is all relative to where you are. I took my Miata on a 4200 mile road trip over the last 10 days from Connecticut to Florida, Florida to Ohio and from Ohio back to Connecticut. The ride in the areas where snow doesn't exist as a whole was a totally different ride/drive than those areas with snow.

I know of a few Mazda owners who take their cars racing and daily drive them as well. I own a MS6 with the AWD and "great handling" as you say, but in comparison to a few other Mazda cars, it's a ******* boat. Adding a set of coilovers and rear sway bar has completely changed the handling of the MS6 for the better.

As far as sports car vs performance sedan, go talk to Tri-Point or Tindol Motorsports about their "performance sedan" Mazda 6 cars and come talk some crap.

Guys, everything is functional..to our eyes. We mod, because we think it'll either look good or perform good or both. That's our own opinion and our own style and we build our own cars to our image, and not to anyone else's.

Thanks!

and I haven't really tested out those tires very much. They came with the wheels. I only had those wheels on for about a day before I took them off cause of rubbing. I need new back tires (they were practically bald) and they were too thick (which caused rubbing).

245/45/17 were the back tires. need to get 245/25 just like the front.

245's???? wtf lol. that pretty wide for a 3. i would go over 225.

I'm pretty sure she meant 225/45. Lol you think she wants a 25 sidewall, too? (lol2)

And 245 isn't too wide for a 3. Good size for a performance tire.

 

[Tungsten6]

yea me to lol.
maybe she wants some serious rubba bands

 

[Wagonbacker9]

if I can put a 245 tire on a protege then you can get one on a 3.

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Why would you just put one on...why not all 4???

 

[Wagonbacker9]

actually I have 2.

 

[ucMP3]

actually I have 2.

I bet you'd have a really hard time getting 4 to fit, lol.

No... lol I definitely meant 245/45. I got these from an STi guy.. so he enjoyed wide tires.

ONLY the back tires were 245/45. The fronts were 225/45 and they didn't rub at all.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

a subaru guy had mismatched tires? thats pretty odd. I guess he didn't like his center differential much.

regardless, 245/25 is a TINY sidewall.

 

[crazyduckme]

I don't know the full story of the tires from the guy. LOL! he had the wheels, then his brother, then me. I know his brother bought the 225/45's and the owner had 245/45's.

it was all confusing when I got them. LOL!

 

[ScratchNSniff]

actually I have 2.

I will be the same, just on a different rim...putting the 225's on the back and 245's on the front...7" rim as opposed to 8" and a +35 offset...

No, lol. You meant 225/45, not 245/25, I'm pretty sure... I know the tires you have are 245/45, but I was talking about the tires you want to get instead. Unless you really want a 245/25.

I was just clarifying this for the other guy.
