You guys think these rims would look good on the MX3?

Anyone have a set of these on a MX3?
They only weight 12lbs each
Any pics?

Yes there Rota Slipstreams, they come in 15" and 16"(I think). As for as I know Neil has a set of them, he made a thread some time ago about them, he had 15x7" rims IIRC. IMO 15" is to small, the 16's may look good though.

Personally, I don't like them. Pretty boring, IMO. Might as well put steel wheels with no hub caps on IMO.

I dont have pictures of them on the car yet because well i have been spending almost no money on the car lately and have been caught up with other things.

This is a photoshop that was one by one of the members on here, i dont remember who... but it was somone!

This photoshop doesnt do justice to what they would actually look like taken in a real picture. Do they look good? Yes.

It all depends on what you're going for with your car. I want a stock look thats why i went with them. They're nice rims i cant wait to buy tires for them and actually get them on the car.

Yes they come with centercaps too, so don't worry about that if you are concerned.

Now thats the opinion I am looking for
How about these?

(The white ATTACK Wheels)

Or, for a couple $300 more...

btw,
I am looking for 15s. Mostly for the lightness and how cheap the tires are. I might consider 16s

slipstrreams are so 5 years ago lol- no really I think we should just leave 'em to the honda guys

Is your car black? If so, I'd pick Enkei PKR (black) or Quantum Tek S02 (graphite).

5 spokes should be on Mustangs and Camaros. 6 spokes look alot classier on imports.

I agree with lakers and I think you should consider 16" rims. Konig heliums in bronze look good to and they are lightweight

Juan, look at Rota Circut 8's or circut 10'. I think those would look good as well on your car. Subzero and Boost from Rota are also nice.

You guys are right
Those wheels look better
I am very intrested in the Konig Heliums because they are so light
I dont know yet if I should go with 15"s or 16"s yet

I realize that 15's are lighter and the tires are abit cheaper, but mx3's are not like a honda. We have huge fender wells and 16's are as small as you can go IMO with aftermarket rims, especially ones that have cureved spokes that curve in on the top. Tires for 16" are not to badly priced either.

Go white six spoke all the way. I have Traffik's from Konig. White rims look good on any color car.

How much Wild Turkey did you have to drink before you could type that?
