You got the TPMS?

If you getting auto from PI, most will be JDM, and they dont normally comes with TPMS.
Anyway, there's a sticky on the main wheels, tyres section with a list of rims that fit the TPMS, that is if you got the system with your ride.

original rims, suggest u wait for someone to change their rims. It will be so much cheaper. If u wan to buy from Mazda motors or mazda japan, for that price, better buy outside rims.

If compare price vs quality, of cos outside one is better. Get from someone who is changing out of their 18in rims, this will be the best deal, unless that joker is selling exhorbitant price lah...... our stock rims plus tyres at most is ard $1000 or if brand new, shld be ard $1200 - $1300 niah.

If not, u can consider SSW (stamford tyre) rims if u r on a budget. They have pretty nice rims at good prices! Volk racing rims are on the high side. How about grams light? Racing hart? Work?

Maybe mine does not have TPMS too. Did not really see it.

If it does not come with my car, its also good. It means i can change to any rims i like.

I am looking to install lightweight ones to my ride.

light weight ones = forged rims = very expensive!

Bro, refering to one of your earlier posts.... :P

Actually like your rims, but prefer the original colour... ( sorry ah, personal preference! )

How much did you pay to spray it?
