Well ladies and gentlemen i've spent a week looking for rims and I can not decide.. the ones that look good are heavy.. or they extende out too much and I will have rubbing in the rear and would need to roll my fenders (no thanks)... Or they are 400 per rim (no thanks)...
But so far I like these momo designs but I can not find the weight... So I will not take a risk (I want each rim to be below 21 pounds).
My car is a Black MazdaSpeed 3 and I finally have the funds to buy summer rims (make the stock ones for winter). The factory rims are 18x7 5x114.3 Offset is 52.5mm
I've been looking at the 7.5x18 to prevent rubbing. So far I've found a handfull of lightweight 18x7.5 offset 45mm rims. But they may look odd on my car (small) because of the way the Lips are. So far the Enkei EVO5, EVO6, and RSV have my attention but as i said earlier they may look odd. I'm not sure it 8in rims will rub or not in the rear but there are way more nicer looking lightweight 8in rims... Tenzos have some nice designes too.
anyway heres the list! I appreciate any feedback/suggestions! It doesnt have to be one from this list so if you know a nice set of rims then feel free to suggest them :)
