rims and lights... help!! im new

[ilovemymazda]

i just bought my mazda mx-3 a week ago and absolutely love it. ive wanted on since i was like 14. but now i need to buy new tires so i am going to buy new rims. should i buy 17's or stay with the 16's. if i get 17's what size tire should i get? also i am looking in to blackingout my tailights. is this legal? and where else can i get it done. i was looking at sending them to texas at a place called smokinlights. and it would help if you could tell me a good place to buy mx-3 parts. short shifter, strut braces, exhaust etc. thanks soo much

you can do to 17. tire size 205-50-17 will keep the same diameter you need. ..for the black out taillight...you have to check with you local police station. some states and prov. need to do your reseach.

Dont get 205/50/17 thats to thick in my opinion doesnt look right. Get 205/40/17 at least if not wider something like 225/35/17 is sick as hell and the wider the better :p

Well I have 205/50 R16 and I am quite satisfied with mine

If your looking for parts we have a section called "aftermarket parts" on the main page of this website.<p>Or you can look on ebay.

215/40 17 is the perfect size to keep your speedo correct
