It never ceases to amaze me how the right style of 17" rims complement the heck out of a MX-3. Your car looks brand new on the pics.

Nice rims man.

Thanks man :)
BTW, i use Armor All Tire Gel on my tires.. i've used just about everything..i find that this stuff lasts longer and is glosser than anything i've used.. and surprizingly.. cheaper :)

Its like 4.50 at autozone, or 4 bucks at wallmart :)

I actually got them from a company in Cali called Ice Cold Racing.
They actually produce knock off's of other company's rims..It's probably illegal.. but hey!

These rims are a knock off of Enkei RP03 Rims - 17x7 of these rims usually retail for about 1200 before shipping, I got mine for 155 before shipping. The only difference is the Enkei's are 17.2 lbs a piece, these are 21.3 lbs a piece.. they are a bit heavier and the coloration is SLIGHTLY different, but otherwise to the untrained eye.. they look the same. :)

I'm happy with the quality and the guys that shipped these things definately knew what they were doing - each rim was individually wraped to protect the face of the rim, and card boarded to protect the lips of the rims.

$155! thats a freakin steal! even if it is before shipping.

what offset is the wheel and how much room do u have between the strut and the wheel?

its a +40mm offset, with the 205/40/R17's tires i have on them, i have about 3/4 inch clearance between the top of the tire and the bottom of the strut (where the spring gets held by the strut)

and this was at the time i had full tread.
