Don't even have the car in my possesion yet, and already thinking about wheels. I am looking at some Tork Imagines, with the above specs. Any idea if these will be possible to run? I would eventually like to put a small drop on as well. Let me know what you experts think. :)

Yeah, I like them as well, but everything I am reading from mazda3forums is that they'll stick out from the body and look stupid. ARGH! I just want some nice black 5 spokes with a chrome lip!

I would suggest a slightly less agressive offset. Something +43 or higher. Prob safest with a +45, +48.

I'm not a fan of dark wheels with chrome/polished lips.

Here's a list of wheels that will fit the 3:

I think black wheels on a black car with a chrome lip would look so damn cool. I don't want a lot of chrome on the car, will probably black out my emblems as well.

Thanks for the link. I like one or two of them, I just can't stand the multi-hub wheels with 10 holes in them. Maybe they will look different once they are on.
