The part I hate the most when it comes to cleaning the car, is the wheels. These rims are a little more friendly for cleaning than the stockers.

Thanks for the kind words Jimmy!

I feel your pain, the stocks have so many 'spokes' it's a pain to clean the brake dust from between all of them... your new ones will be way easier to handle

i'm loving my black winter-wheels, I almost want to keep them on year round so I don't have to clean the stocks...

I'm really happy they worked out for you...couldn't have been adopted by a better new owner! I think they look better on your MS3 than they did on my MS6.

[quote="Number2"]Just bought the Rays Engineering Mazdaspeed MS-TII wheels. Yes I know my car needs to be lowered. That is my next mod.

Edit:
I wasn't sure if I wanted these wheels, but there were several factors that swayed me.

1) The owner was an older guy, and he babied the car/wheels. Also, the car was garaged. Hardly any damage at all.
2) I like the rivots design along the outer lip.
4) Offset is 50mm, almost identical to my 52.5mm offset. I couldn't really find a closer fit with an aftermarket wheel.
4) Bridgestone Potenzas R760 Sport tires w/ only 3k miles on them. Same size tires as OE.
5) Sure, gun metal, black, gold, bronze are all cool colors, and all wheels have been done to death. Even white wheels would look good on the car. In the end, it was the novelty factor and the rareness that sold me.

I'm happy they worked out well for you. They certainly got a great new owner! I think they look better on your MS3 than they did on my MS6! Sweet ride!

Those having problems with brake dust...when it's time to replace you can check out a company called EBC Brakes. Prior to trading my MS6, I replaced the worn out stock brake pads with EBC slotted/drilled rotors and Red Stuff ceramic pads. No more brake dust and the brakes were better than stock. Happy speeding!
