At first I thought these were just the stock wheels, but they don't look like any other stock wheels that I have seen. Anyone have any idea what kind of wheels they are?

Thanks!

 

^^^they look like the stock 16" wheels for an auto...maybe someone else will fill you in cause im not sure but thats what they look like

 

yep pretty darn right on

 

Cool thanks. They are on my car right now, so if I go up to 18's, will I have problems with the speedometer? I was also planning on getting the mazdaspeed suspension (springs & shocks). Will I run into clearance issues by lowering the car 20mm and getting 18'' wheels?

 

LOL!! hahaha I didn't see that coming...

........that's what she said.

 

That was weird wasnt it

 

I just got the car a little over a month ago, and it's the first car I've owned that I actually want to mod. I have alot to learn still, so please excuse the noob questions. Got to start somewhere though!

 

so you have an auto right? its the base auto, if you had the sport suspension you would have 18" wheels that you normally see. Im not sure about the speedo difference.

 

Yeah, got an auto (I know..., had a few good reasons for it though, hehe)

Love the car so far!

 

as far as the speedometer im not sure, im on 17" with tein s tech's and i dont have any problems with clearance issues, and there are a lot of members that are lowered on 18's so that wont be a problem, as far as the speedometer im pretty sure you will be okay.

 

I believe your 16's have a 225/55/16 size tire. If you get 18's with XXX/45/18 or XXX/40/18 size tire you shouldn't have much if any speedo difference.
