I'm just posting this for anyone wondering what different size wheels and tires look like with a drop/slammed.
Also because every time I look for wheels on a Mazda 3, I can not find that much.
So I'm adding to the variety.
I've had more wheels but I only listed the ones I had a picture off.
The progress of being lowered is as follows:
Stock
Road Magnets (before they were discounted)
Cut Road Magnets
Coilovers
Coilovers with cut Road Magnets
Current: Cut Coilovers
The wheels are posted in order, from oldest to most recent.
