    Toddy is running CX9 20's. Looks very nice. I think the car is lowered as well. No rubbing from what he tells me.

    Perfect hey was worried to when deciding on 8" or 8.5" but from research said it was good and now agree recommend it. +40 scrubs sometimes but rarely only like when going over bumps a little fast, but nothing to complain about. What are you looking at?

    Car Model: Mazda 3 MPS Gen 1
    Wheel Brand/Model: CSA motivator (courtesy of Raven, Thanks)
    Wheel Size and offset: 18" x 7.5" Unsure of offset
    Wheel Weight: ???
    Tyre Brand/Model/Size: Sumitomos HTZIII 225/45/18
    Tyre Cost: 245-265 each fitted and balanced (exact number i forget)
    Tyre Rating: Very predictable and grippy in the dry, Not confidence building in the wet, had a couple of times ended up just going straight on with the wheel turned. Overall 7/10. They do the job for the price but be wary in the wet
    Handling/Grip: 8 when dry/9 when dry, 5 when wet (just my opinion)
    Wear: just over almost 20000km and still about 40% to go to the thread marker
    Suspension Brand/Model: stock
    Fenders rolled?: No

    Impressions: Good value tire just be wary when driving in the rain. Road noise is better than the stock tyres. Wear is good but needs constant rotation (i do mine every 5000kms)
    Rubbing?: None

    so these rims r horny as and I want them but dont know if they will fit?
    all the americans r running the oz's but no1 here.
    help me peeps please and thankyou.
    ciao
    Hey steviekfc, I agree with you! Sexy ass wheels. They are for sale at Blairs Tyre Service (Peakhurst,NSW) in 19x9... thats 2" more than stock lol so that could be a problem. I emailed them to ask and I'll let you know what they say. I also really liked the superturismo gt in matte black with red lettering, but they told me this model only comes in silver to suit the mps 6
