noob question....

Is anyone rocking Mazdaspeed 3 wheels on their 3.2CL? I've found a local set for sale and was thinking this might be a good look. My biggest worry is the offset...I'm not even sure what offset my current aftermarket wheels are yet. Thanks in advance!

Are they these wheels?



If so, here are the specs and yes those will fit for our cars. They might be tucked a little more than some people like due to them being only 7" wide. You might want to run a 5mm spacer to push them out of the wheel well a little.

18" x 7" 52.5 mm offset, 5 x 114.3

I have them. Like NSXNEXT said, they are a weak offset/width and are not nearly flush, but a bit better than stock. I dont mind though, I got a good deal and they look much better than stockies IMO. You will need Hubcentric adapters, our hub bore is smaller, you can find them on ebay.

Thanks Zac! (It's funny I work with a guy named Zach with a MS3)

For some reason the pics aren't showing up in my browser. Can you email some of the pics to mugenh22a4@aol.com? I'd really like to see how the offset it on the CL.
