Could someone find me some pics??

Postby Speed3 » Thu Oct 06, 2011 9:14

I need some pics of a True Red Mazdaspeed with bronze rims, i'm considering this as soon as winter passes and I want a better look at how the rims look. I'm leaning towards Rota G-Forces

Checked over on the mazda3forums yet? They have threads dedicated to each color MS3 and I bet you could find one in there. Or just a general search of the MS3 section could yield you a gold mine!

Found these just by Googling Red Mazdaspeed3. I believe Mazdaspeedforums.org also has a thread where they show every type of wheel on all different kinds of MS3s. Personally, I think bronze looks terrible on a red car. Only a black MS3 could pull it off imo.

i haven't checked mazda3forums yet just mainly checking around on mazdaspeedforums. i think the gold on red is an acquired taste why don't you like it? i just kinda want something that sets my car apart like what's above, i know those are advan's but the g-forces are almost replicas of them.. what're the rims in the last two pics?

I like the way the guy tied in the bronze/light gold rims with the amber colored driver lights in the second to last picture.

I don't think the combo looks bad and would be different, which is what you are after. Are your calipers painted?

Also don't like yellow fogs or the WRX hood, lol. But it's not my car so do what you like.

yep i hate the yellow fogs too, but why the hood? i think it adds such an aggressive look and helps with heat soak also since i plan on keeping the top mount for now

I don't know that the scoop will do anything to help with TMIC performance. There's already ducting in the stock hood that brings air directly to the TMIC. I guess it might let some heat out when you're idling, but unless it has ducting built into that scoop and seals around the TMIC like the stock hood, it might actually perform worse than the stock hood while driving down the road.

Plus, I dunno. I just don't think the scoop looks right on the first gens. But that's just a personal preference.

THIS! Love those wheels. And this particular wheel in that color does look good on Red. The first one you posted is not my cup of tea, but this is.

OZ Ultraleggeras are just hot no matter what. They could be purple and still be drool-worthy. But they are $$$. $350/wheel for the gold ones from Tire Rack, for ones that fit the MS3.
