Car was clean so I took some pics.
Didn't want the stripes, and I have seen this done, but in my opinion not well executed. Got the vinyl done through VFX Graphics (I can get the email if interested).

Here is a pic of wider stance of the 225-40s I put on in combination with 3mm spacers.

Looks good! Someone should try the stripe, and the negative space being the "2.3 TURBO"
More info on the spacers...

hmmm, I've never seen it done before... The spacers make the wheels look awesome, though I'm not really a fan of the 6 wheels.

Spacers are just the universal aluminum type. Got them as a gift.

i was going to ask about the spacers as well
i put on 1/4-inch spacers (i have no idea what that means for mm) but i get some vibes out of them I didnt know how else to get rid of those vibes. Maybe ther arent centered? Since i've heard something about the center bore or whatevers. the spacer certainly makes the stance look much nicer on mine than without the spacers tho
I know you mentioned thay are universal, but are they hub centric? or were there gaps in the center when putting them on before the wheels... I get vibes so I'd love to make the car ride better if there is a way to make the spacers sit better and if thats the actual problem i'm having

looks sweet with no moldings and MS6 rims but not feeling the vinyl, debadge the "mazdaspeed3" then put writing on the hood?

i'm all over the spacers. I may try to find out why mine rides rough, maybe the thing isn't centered. Tho I have used spacers on 3 other cars without these issues. Somehow I'll ave to see how to center them

How did it look without the 3mm spacers? I picked up some MS6 wheels last week. I know it's a 55 offset, but I figure I'll be fine.

vinyl not so good. anyone who knows about cars will probably already know what engine is in it. Kinda like when explorer owners put a big explorer sticker across the windshield. kinda tacky. speed3 rims look beefier. just my humble opinion, the rest of the car looks clean

Car is looking good. Vinyl don't look good. I don't like. Should try the black stripe with the letters cut out of it if you really want the letters. I believe the car looks cleaner and more sleak with the mouldings removed. The ms6 wheels make the whole car look more classy.
