The wheels are 3piece Image 7x17 front and 9x17 rear

Mazda delivered the two-tone,so it's stock

Flares are for a Datsun 240z and in carbon.

Beautiful paint - flares on rear actually pretty tasteful addition; really works with the wheels, even w/o matching flares on the front - nicely executed jete...
Looks like Norway is enjoying a late fall like I am in Alaska? Being only 100 mi south of the Arctic Circle, having warm dry weather here now is a Gift!

Looks great!

I forgot to ask what width tires those are you have in the back...

I'm just trying to figure out what I want to do with my car, I'm pretty positive I'm going to go the flared route (all around, front and back) but I want to make sure I get everything right.

I have 245x35 back and 205x40 in front
I also have flares for the front,but I have not
gotten around to put it on.

You can fit 9"back without flares if you go with offset 55,but you dont get
that deep dish.

Do you have any high res images?

If so, you should send them to me for the 2010 First Generation RX7 Calendar!

Looks great but space your front wheels out some more, they look silly tucked in while the rears are flush to the fender.
