Will MOTEGI TRAKLITEs fit?

[javajay17]

I have a Mazda 3 i and I want to put on some motegi traklites on my car.

Here are the specs:
5x114.3
15x6.5
36mm offset

Will this offset fit our cars?

Thanks

yes and they look awesome

might want to get them a little bigger so u can clear the brakes easier
not sure if thats a problem or not on 3's but just a heads up

15s will fit if you don't have a 2.3 liter (which you have an i so it should have the 2.0). Also that offset is not gonna look right. The wheels are gonna be sitting out of the fenders a bit there.

Eh, it'll fit but I'd say get bigger ones. Better look, and they are really light (14 pounds) for the 17 inch, insanely light. I was going to get some 17's on my car. Guy on here is selling them for 700 shipped almost brand new. No curbing or anything.

I would really stress that the offset is not right. You don't want to go much lower than a +40 on a 3..

The 17's I'm getting I believe are at +42.

Yeah, thats a good size. I said you don't want to go LOWER than +40.

+42 > +40 > +36..

Haha, yes I understand I was simply clarifying what I was putting on. What size tires do you think for the 17x7.5 Tracklites?

I have 17x7.5s +42 and I run a 215/45/17..

Thanks man. Any drop? I want to drop my car also but not sure if I can if I go higher in size rims.

I'm on progress springs (1.3 drop all around) and have no issues. You could probably push a 225/45 since +42 is a pretty safe offset.

Most current pic of drop and wheel/tires:

Nice, how do you like the Progress Springs? I was looking at the Eibach Pro-kit.

 

[javajay17]

I'm getting 2 free 15 inch motegi traklite, so i can't argue with that lol

Okay I have a good deal on these but what do you think they would look like on a Black Mica car? Flat black rims?
