I was thinkin of keeping my stockers for winter use and using one of these for the summer set:

Enkies
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&autoMake=Mazda&autoModel=MazdaSpeed3&autoYear=2008&autoModClar=&initialPartNumber=4428756538BS

-or-

Kazeras
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&showRear=no&filterSize=&filterFinish=&filterSpecial=&filterNew=&initialPartNumber=KZJ804AMF&autoMake=Mazda&autoModel=MazdaSpeed3&autoYear=2008&autoModClar=

See I really like the look of the Kazeras and they're a bit cheaper than the Enkies (which are also real cool looking). I don't really care what brand they are, I'm just looking for a good looking set of rims for not too much coin. Any other reccomendations, that sort of follow the same look as the first two? Only thing is they have to be 18s and fit the stock tire.

(yes unfortunately I'm still slip slidding all over the place on my OEM Bridgestones in the winter. I know I'm stupid, but winters almost over so I was thinking of this set up for next year... just get the snow tires for the stock rims when winter rolls around. Then, get the new wheels for the following summer.)

The Enkei's are much nicer looking. The Kazera just looks cheap to me but that could be the picture.

Enkeis hands down. Find out how much they weigh.

The Enkeis have subtle differences that make them look a lot better than the Kazeras. Kazera is a good brand. I know a few people who have them on their cars. Good quality.

The enkeis look better but they both look almost exactly the same as the tenzo-r type m's which are also sick

Yeah I took a look at those Tenzos and they're really sick. Only thing is that it's almost 1k for the set. The Enkies would be around 720 a set and the Kazeras around 640

The Enkeis look real nice. Kind of like the MS6 rim.

Yeah you should totally cheap out on wheels. They're not important or anything.

Just because the Enkei and Kazeras are lower in price doesn't make them "cheaper" in quality.

Yeah, the quality of those wheels isn't bad at all... I've decided I want the Enkie EKM3s... now to decide... Hyper Silver or Gunmetal on my red MS3? I like the stock color so I think I'd like the hyper silver... but I'm still undecided.

I like the stock color so I think I'd like the hyper silver... but I'm still undecided.I would do gunmetal, why replace one set of silver wheels with another. Yeah Enkie's are the best choice between the two.

Gunmetal. Those wheels are going to look sick.. But please get some springs or something to get rid of that ridiculous gap. The wheels will look 100x's better if you lower the car a little.
