they will fit but anytime u make a turn you will most likely rub on the inside fenders really really bad! nad if u don't have upgraded brakes you will have horrrible stoping distances! soo upgrad brakes ! also ull feel all of hte road because the tires would have no side wall just fit in the wheel well!

can you get pics of these mx3's?? 19's would probably look awkwordly huge. i cant even imagine how rough the ride would be.

I've seen a guy in Welland with 19s on his MX.. I know of a few people who have 18s, and I love the look of them, but I think 17s are about as far as I would go on our cars... it's already rough enough.

man your car is tight! i wouldn't change a thing....cept maybe that steering wheel =/ . i love the white seats and the headlights. Looks sorta rx-8 ish.

My civic friend was looking at your site on saturday and said ot me "this car makes me wanna own a mx-3"

damn those seats r clean!

yeah they look to big. 17's is the biggest i would go. I'd say those 19's are a VERY rough ride.

i thought they'd look alot bigger than that, but still i dont think the cost and ride would be worth the look.

Is the sacrifice of handling and performance really worth the cost of looks and appearance? 17's would be and is my choice. I think you already have an oustanding ride and I wouldn't entertain 19's at all. You've done a remarkable job already. Why not consider alternative "performance" mods, IMO.

Why do peeps do it? It makes the car look all show and no go! those A8 rims do look small for 19s though.
