thx, mate. Actually I ve ordered the enkei EDR9's from tirerack. Open the box yesterday and the EKM's are inside. I was like WTF!? so I called them and they said that the EDR9 are backordered for 3 months so they sent me those instead. lol ... so I installed those and actually I think they look sick. love em so far.

RoTaRyRx-8 06-12-2009 11:32 PM

^^ they just sent em to you, they didnt tell you anything before they sent em to you

ya pretty much. Well, they sent them to my mazda dealership. ( its a long story but I get employee pricing there and they have like 20% on all tire rack purchases) anyways, ya. I opened the box and boom - different rims. I was like, u have got be shitting me. But I think they actually turned out pretty good, so I m happy :)

As long as your happy and these are worth more or the same as the others.

yeah, price wise, they are exactly the same. My only concern was that they are 1lbs heavier then the EDR9's. So its 4lbs total on all wheels, but I dont think its gonna make that big of a difference.

Nice ride! Now can you hook up the club peeps with employee pricing too :)

actually I might. You would be suprized how much overprized some parts are comparing to the VIP pricing :D. aka, original mazdaspeed cold air intake, new and shiny in da box - $280 :D lol, I really shouldn't be telling u all those things. lol

FreshLettuce 06-13-2009 01:40 AM

everything looks great but those stickers! and I think you could drop it a little more too

SARRAS 06-13-2009 04:49 AM

Cute car - WHAT, WHERE, HOW MUCH were the roof strakes??

Fortunate Few 06-13-2009 05:00 AM

awesome rims.

ZOOMNRX8 06-13-2009 03:35 PM

You should put the intake try back in, it helps cooling from what I heard :eyetwitch

9krpmrx8 06-13-2009 03:42 PM

Nice choice of mods. Just lose the strakes, roof fins, and stickers.

dmp 06-13-2009 03:59 PM

Great job - just keep the strakes, lose the roof fins immediately, as well as the stickers.

lepichichi 06-13-2009 04:26 PM

MastaMarek 06-13-2009 10:52 PM
