another rims post... (help needed)

Post by mx3uk »

Hi!<p>I have a UK 1995 1.8 v6 MX-3 and I really want to put some 17" wheels on. I dont want to lower the car but will it look stupid on 17£ rims without being lowered?<p>Does anyone have pictures of an MX-3 with 17s which hasnt been lowered?<p>Any advice would be great...

I have 17" white rims and my car is not lowered. I have two webpages with lots of pictures, the links are in my signature. Have fun.

Correct. That's a good point since I made it look like a GS with the spoiler and mud guards. LOL I don't think that will make any difference with the tire and rim clearance would it?

Fantastic! Yours is the same colour as mine too! This gives me the confidence to go get my 17" rims and not worry about lowering it just yet.<p>Love those lights aswell - going to try and find a source in the UK for a set!<p>P.S: My Car:

I think it looks fine without lowering. I can't because of my 45 degree driveway and garage.
Look at my sig below.
