17's will fit fine as long as the lug pattern is the same as your car. When you buy the rims, they will ask what kind of car you have to make sure they will fit. I have rims for sale right now, but they are 15". I just bought some 17" Enkei CDR9s.<p>[ July 22, 2002: Message edited by: Q187 ]

got any pictures of your mx3 on the new wheels ? I am having a hard time choosing what sort to go for..<P>One side of me wants a rare design, another side of me likes the look of an mx3 on some 5 spokes.

This should help you: <P>Go to:<BR> <A HREF="http://www.discounttire.com/dtc/findWhe ... tep=search" TARGET=_blank>http://www.discounttire.com/dtc/findWhe ... =search</A> <P> and click on the PT Cruiser on the main page. Then go to Mazda, MX3, your color. It shows your car and when you click on the rims, it puts them on your car. You can also choose which size This helped me decide on which rims to get. I was looking at the 5 spoke Enkei RS5's but the Enkei CDR9s have 9 spokes and they look better on the MX3. Hope that helps. And I'll post pics of mine when I get them this friday.<P>[ July 23, 2002: Message edited by: Q187 ]<p>[ July 23, 2002: Message edited by: Q187 ]

The lug pattern is 4x100.Ihave mille miglia evo 5 spokes with yokohama 550 tires 205/40/17,by far the best thing i did to my car ,changes the look drasticly,if you do put 17's on plan on lowerin' it cause (I think)they look silly at stock height.
