Re: 19's on mx-3
This has been posted many times before.<P>Nobody has ever been known to have successfully put 19" rims on an MX-3. The largest you can go without any custom work is 18".<P>Is it really worth putting in all that custom work and money so your rim can be 1" larger?

Re: 19's on mx-3
Not to mention the larger the wheel, the more likely it's going to weigh more.

Re: 19's on mx-3
Yes 18's will fit but not too many people have them on their mx-3's because you have to use super low profile tires. They do look sweet though.

Re: 19's on mx-3
There is a Silver Mx in Orangeville with the fx kit/wing, i'm sure Macnwigs has seen it, and i've been told that it has 19's on it.<P>I've seen it driving (and the rims were big, but it was hard to tell). I never acutally got a chance to look at the rims up close. Maybe someone knows him, his name is Tim, I met him before he put on the rims.

Re: 19's on mx-3
I'm about to buy some low profiles for my wheels, but I don't know what tires I can get. I want some 17's but what does 215/35 out of 215/35/18 - I know the 18 must be wheel size.
Re: 19's on mx-3
The 215 is the tread width in MM, and the 35 is the sidewall height as a percentage of the tread width in MM. <BR>I could never figure out why they switch from metric to imperial like that. <P>one
