Installed RX8 R3 wheels - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 / Mazda Atenza Forum

adrian-1 · 09-21-2009, 12:36 PM

I found some 19" RX8 R3 wheels on ebay. They're 19x8 with 47 offset, tires are goodyear eagle RS-A's, 225/45/19. I still need to buy the center caps from the dealership. I also posted the Laguna Seca Mazda6 with the R3 wheels and a crazy drop.

UPDATE:
Car is now lowered. Picture attached at the bottom.

Looks good on your car. How much did they cost?

adrian-1 · 09-21-2009, 12:51 PM

$1100 for wheels on ebay. $800 for new tires.

Yeah, good choice and good deal on the wheels, but terrible choice on the tires.

nice, but your car looks horrid with that wheel gap compared to that pace car... and should you have gone with a 40 or 35 series tire ( i dont know what the your stock tire is to compare tire height)
