    Default Need help choosing rims for a black 07 3MPS

    Hey everybody.
    Ive decided to finally change the stock rims on my 3 mps but i cant decide which rims to get. Can you guys help out a little and tell me which one out of these 4 rims would look the best?
    Thanks for help

    I'd get a Rota G Force, with the biggest offset you can fit. That way the spokes with have that nice curved look. Oh, and I go black. It'll look tuff.

    Thanks for replies
    I found some pictures of gforces on a black mps, they dont look as nice as i thought they would.
    Here is the website with the gforces Rota G-Force wheels on 2009 Mazda 3| WHEELDUDE.COM
    Also,i was kinda considering getting white Grids (the 3rd rim). You guys think it would look alright or should i just go with black? Saw the white rims on the red mps,they look HOT as

    The advantage of having the rota wheels is that they are as close to the original offset as you can easily get.
    People seem to have forgotten the point of offset on rims.
    With the wrong offset you shift the weight of the wheel on the hub and can lead to things like premature wheel bearing wear

    Good choice of rims, I like the first ones. That's what I would have chosen for mine had I have known how good they were before I bought my rims

    Those last ones look awesone in white on black cars. But I really do love Black on black.
