ADR Cyphers... congrats! ;)
fannin522 04-26-2008, 08:20 PM thanks im very pleased with the way they came out
TopGear8 04-26-2008, 09:48 PM Cool stuff, you did a good job painting and detailing your calipers.
VampireSix 04-26-2008, 10:13 PM I think the stock 18" five spokes look better.

thanks i got the mazdaspeed emblems for the brakes from polak graphics
AdoRe 04-27-2008, 09:58 AM I think the stock 18" five spokes look better.
sorry i have to agree
fannin522 04-27-2008, 11:42 AM o well everyone has there own opinion but the pics dont do them justice its a shitty camera as u can tell they look good in person
imput1234 04-27-2008, 01:47 PM You need better pictures lol, I bet they look a lot better inperson
Mspeedpro 04-27-2008, 01:57 PM For some reason the design of the wheel makes them look like 17s to me. I think the lip is too thick so as to cut into the "gaps" of the wheel in b/w the spokes; making the rim look smaller?? The signature above mine shows how the stock wheels look large thanks to the large amount of open space in b/w each spoke...
Dont know if that makes sense. I get the feeling these things probably do look a lot better in person. Post some better pics when you can :)
PS -- calipers look good, nice job
WikkedOne 04-27-2008, 02:31 PM I like them - nice clean look.. not over-blingy.. not trying too hard... good work.
Razz1 04-27-2008, 03:44 PM not bad at all.
kevinD1226 04-27-2008, 04:21 PM very nice man
Snakebite202 04-27-2008, 04:30 PM For some reason these remind me of the stock wheels that come with the auto...
fannin522 04-28-2008, 08:48 AM i will put better pics up soon thanks for all of your all opinions hopefully the new pics will show how good they really look

My8DriftsMe 04-28-2008, 10:47 PM you painted your calipers silver???
JRichter 04-29-2008, 12:10 PM I like the rim style. A narrower and maybe more lower profile tire will make them look even better.
kennychopra17 04-29-2008, 12:43 PM nice work on your calipers. I gotta do that one of these days.
bruce_van 04-29-2008, 12:46 PM Not bad. You can't go wrong with a 5 spoke design.
fannin522 05-06-2008, 10:32 PM here are some better pics

CarAndDriver 05-06-2008, 11:10 PM I think they are nice.
m3pkrobert 05-06-2008, 11:19 PM looks way better now, ur camara made a big difference
Noble Wolf 05-07-2008, 12:33 PM Much better than the completely crappy stock wheels. The people that prefer stocks are the ones that prefer anything that is stock, even if it is like shit.
mja64 05-07-2008, 03:00 PM very clean ans simple, just the way i like it compared to some of these overly done fan boy 8s i see on here. anyways what kind of paint for the calipers...did you brush or spray. also is the car lowered? thanks!
dynamho 05-07-2008, 04:00 PM I think the stock 18" five spokes look better.
I agree. I think the stock wheels are lighter and better looking than most aftermarket ones.
fannin522 05-07-2008, 09:54 PM anyways what kind of paint for the calipers...did you brush or spray. also is the car lowered? thanks!
no its not lowered and its spray caliper paint i got it at local auto parts store for like 8 bucks use lots of coats
