I am thinking about getting these. just wanted to see what every one thought

They are 17x7 not sure if 18x7.5 would be too big, never put rims on car before

any suggestions on tires, i dont drive the car in snow!!!

forgot to mention 2004 6s hatch, sport package, atx, blazing copper

those are nice, what color 6 do u have though?

as for tires go with the falken ziex or the toyo (both have decent performance meshed with reliability for everyday use)

Remember, try to get the offset to be greater than 45. Otherwise, you might have to roll your fender.

BTW, I don't see the offset listed on tirerack.

For tires, Toyo is #1 in this forum. Suggested size is 225/45R17.

Hi thanks giving tire ideas; my 6 is Blazing Copper, also wondering do you think the 18x7.5 would cause any rubbing?

Also have been looking at same wheel except in chrome kinda torn now

I believe those are the same rims RhodeIslandMazda6 has. Except his are chrome. I like the black ones better.[attachmentid=4369]
