I like 'em. Dropped would look even better, but that's the pot calling the kettle black!

That I don't really know, I'm a coil overs fan because they are adjustable. Eibach's usually don't run too high, there was a GB for some actually idk if it's still active though.

I couldn't tell a difference in pictures... Eibach Sport Lines go a little lower then Pro Kit though. For an RSX at least...

wow damn i remember when motegi's were the shizz! Used to be on every import out there like 6 years ago! But the color actually looks like a good match so it works great for your car nice choice!

You are LOW ON CASH, but you had enough for rims? I'm not low on cash but I dont have the cash for rims! Springs are probably likw 1/4 the price of the rims bro! ANy kit will work. Ebay has some good cheap kits for the speed3, eibach's are nice as well and those were mentioned earlier.

Either way car looks great with those wheels they match very well

i cracked my rim and got a friend to weld it back closed then it cracked again and a new stock mazdaspeed 3 tim ran $800 and i was already on the way to needing new tires so i had to buy those as well. 4 new aftermarket rims with tires was cheaper than 1 mazda rim and 4 tires so it was kind of necessary.
