Show me your CX-5 wheels

[FiveCX-5]

Splendid ! those wheels ! and how is the roadhandling with de tyre-height of 40 ? Stiffer or probably just the same as the OEM height 65 ?

(within two weeks I`ll get my TSW Sochi Matt Black 20 x 8.5 ET 40 with 245/45/20 Pirelli P Zero, so I hardly can`t wait !!)

Thanks for the compliments!! I just added 2 more pics. Its been very cloudy so my photos are not lightened enough.
I feel the handling its great, dint had a chance to drive the car with the stock tires so i cant compared. the pirelli pzero nero as. are awesome, quiet and great grip, im used to this type of setup more stiffer ride but not hard, sort of like when ridding my road bike but softer.
I think with an offset of 40 would had been plush perfect, but for me its very hard to tried wheels, i have to order everything online and imported, thank God for this forum and all of those that shared they're experiences.
Ill post better shots on a sunny day!!

I really wish I went for the 19" tires/rims when I bought my CX-5. I'm debating upgrading the 17" stock rims but I would prefer to purchase 19" wheels and rims.
Unfortunately I figure that will cost me well over $1000! and my tires only have about 5k on them.

Be patient; the cost of the 19s will come down and there will be a snow tire market for your 17s! Meanwhile, you can get some use out of your current tires.

Keep an eye out on the for sale thread here. They (oem wheel) pop up every now and then. I sold mine a few months ago after they were just sitting in my garage for a year. TBH, unless you really want the oem wheels, you can get some decent priced (and possibly lighter weight) 19-20" wheel that give a more unique look to your vehicle.

I just sold my OEM 19s w/ tires (1500 miles on them) for $950 on Craigslist a week ago. They're definitely a great option for an OEM wheel.

Thanks for the suggestion Guys. Any idea how much I can expect to get for my 17" stock rims/wheels with give or take 5000k on them?
This is probably a silly question but I would I have to do anything special to the car if I decide to upgrade my wheels to 19"?

 

[Surfsup]

You can use any size wheel wih tire as long as they fit, and are the right combination to maintain the same diameter for the speedometer.

 

[tibimakai]

Most likely, you will have to reset the TPMS.

Thanks for the info guys. Can anyone suggest a few websites that let you view the rims on your car virtually?
