HRE. I don't think that I have ever seen a set of HRE on a riced out car. I think they're classy.

 

HREs are nice, just a little on the heavy side and for what you get very expensive... Rob: Yeah, get the silver; looks way better than the black...

 

Be different. Go gold. BTW, I'm insane.

 

You're killing me!


:D

 

I'm kinda wanting the Gunmetal Volk TE-37's for my winning blue... anyone have TE37's at all???

 

Huff, or vivid has them on his RX-8. They look gorgeous, not to mention light. TE-37's will never get old.

 

love these wheels: G Games 77 wolf 2 piece
I wish they have hyperblack

 

Como esta manok_adobo?

The G-Games wheel isn't that bad looking. If you want hyperblack, you could always get it powdercoated.

 

huff or vivid?!?!?! I couldn't find pics :o

 

I've got a pearl white 8 and I cant stop thinking about gunmetal w/ a dark tint on the windows & smoked clears. I've got black/black leather inside and think going with a black/white contrast scheme throughout the whole car would be pretty slick.. if i did go all out, then maybe some gunmetal strakes would accent the rims?

Its a bit of a radical change through and i'm hesitant to look more seriously into it.
I'm still playing with the idea a LOT so any opinions would be greatly appriciated.

 

I found some pics HERO.

BTW, don't you go to UH?

 

For some reason Tire Rack's website now only shows the Black SP1's (they had the silver on the site before).

Now I'm leaning heavily towards the Super Black Coat SSR Professors!

 

appreciate it Shelley's_man, and YES I am a fellow Cougar!!! :D

 

Crap, just got an email from Wholesale Hyperformance that they no longer carry SSR wheels.

I can see that the professors will be a challenge to track down.

 

I've posted these before but I love the wheels made by these guys, seen a lot of them at events etc. on the high dollar rides like vipers etc. probably will have to get them custom made if I ever have enough play money lying around www.ccustomwheel.com

 

oops the link is www.ccwheel.com, here's the style I'm liking:

I am 8 weeks into my 8-10 week lead time for the SSRs...

 

Cortc,

Could you do me a favor and summarize for me why one would want to get new wheels in something other than the 18 x 8 size? I see that you and others have gone for larger and/or wider and/or staggered set-ups. I haven't seen any staggered set-ups in person but it seems like it would look funny.

As far as larger/wider... did Mazda not put the ideal size for looks/performance compromise on stock? Why change? Geniunely curios because i want to get wheels in the near future (right now my favorites are coincidentally the ones you are getting)

 

And while you are at it, I posted a few questions for you as well on your thread on the Professor's!

 

My new favourites... :D

 

Got them in spark silver 19X8.5

 

very nice...

 

Too many good rims.. I can't decide.
Here are more.

TE37 bronze
CE28N bronze or gold
MazdaSpeed bronze
