Tough looking Racer

Post by Grub2000 »

Hi all

I found this MX-3 whilst browsing the web and I reckon it looks mean. I know it has Kosei 17x7's but what offset do you guys reckon it has? wider than normal?. Also do you reckon it has a bigger tyre on it? (those ones are slicks).

I tried to translate the German and it appears that the car has 25mm spacers on the wheels. Guess thats why they flared the rear arches.

Would still like to know tyre sizes though.

holy shizit 25mm how can you even get the lug nuts back on ???? 8mm takes away all the back part with no thread and there is almost none left at all if you add another 17ontop of that.

Didnt get offended just straightened things up a bit :wink:

Any yes those coilovers would be nice to get in production since KW is some of the best in the market, Many people hope this little racer-MX will give us some more aftermarketstuff :D

By the way remember reading on here somebody wanted to reduce weight by changing the windows to lexan...

Their sidewindows is allready outoff Lexan and the hatchwindow is on the to do list, since theyre getting special stuff handcrafted, maybe the manufactures could redo it if more people wanted laxan windows in their MX..

I know theyre quite friendly so if anyone is sincerely interested they could try mailing them :)
