I have a set of Weds Sport SA-70 with the following specs: 18x8 Offset +50 5 - 114 I used these on my 07 MS3 and have had them sitting around for a couple of years. My question is, will these fit on the 2010 Mazda 3 GT that my brother in law just purchased? And what would be the range of...

Updated with proper pics.

Ack, sorry missed that requirement. I'll have to make a trip to the storage locker and retake the pics. May take a cpl of days if that's ok.

For Sale: Four weds sports SA-70 rims currently with Falken rt-615 tires. The tires are worn and I don't think have more than a few hundred miles left in them so this is really about the rims. These rims were on my 2007 Mazdaspeed3. These rims are very rare, when I purchased them back in...

That size will fit fine, I use the same size for my winter setup on stock rims. It rubbed a very little bit on the left rear over big bumps, but only with weight in the back. And it stopped rubbing after the tires got a bit worn. You will be just fine. And don't listen to the "you should get...

I'm running 225x45x18 snow tires on my stock rims. Works fine in the snow, I was able to get through winter last year in Toronto with no problem, and we came close to breaking a record for snow fall. Look into that size as well as the 225x40, they both work although I sometimes (only with two...

My 225x45 snow tires rubbed sometimes in the back when they were new (it was minor). I think 235x45 will have too big a diameter and will rub. 235x40 would be better, but a bit wide for snow tires, and are wider then recommended for the stock rims. For snows both 225x40 and 225x45 will work.

If you're looking for advice, here is what I would do (FWIW): Tuning: Cobb AP - give it a few more months and it should be the perfect tuning choice. I'm sure the Standback is fine, but the AP is just so slick. Intake: Cobb - I think the CPE may be better, but it makes sense to stick to Cobb...

I have seen a number of people post about tracking their MS3s and not notice any problem with the brakes. COBB has tracked their MS3 extensively, and never commented on any brake problems.

When new mine moaned a lot around 110kph. It went away after about 100km. They are noisy tires, but I would not say they moan, just loud.

That is a great idea, I will have to find one of those adapters. Last time I tried to utilize a direct mouth interface with my wife I ended up with some nasty bite wounds. Although she may find something that only spits electrons less offensive.

My wife doesn't have an OBDII port. She does have other ports, but she screams anytime I try to put anything in them. Is a wireless option available? On second thought I may have better luck with a piggy-back solution for this application.

If I have a fat wife, will the SA-AP help make her skinny? Have you tested the beta version on your fat wife?

Recalled has a very specific meaning in the automotive world. Last time I checked recall notices have not gone out to MSCAI owners.

This post is the first I have read about having to sign a special letter when you add a Mazdaspeed CAI. Maybe some dealers did this, but I don't see any indication of it being a Mazda policy. The Mazdaspeed CAI does not void any part of the cars warranty. It is covered by a one year warranty...
