TX Nismo wheels on an FB(not clickbait!)

I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for putting nismo parts on a Mazda, but I don't care. This is the cheapest and best looking way to get Ray's wheels that fit on an FB. These wheels are brand new and would've come on a 2008 Nissan Tiida Nismo. They are made by Ray's and weigh about 14 lbs each. Size is 16x6.5 and I'll be running Riken Raptor ZRs on them in 205/45r16. Let me know what you think!

Fair enough. I like them and that's all that matters to me lol. You'd probably like them a lot more if you knew the deal I got on them lol. I do think they'll look significantly better with tires on and down on the ground. They look really small right now in the big ol fb wheel wells

Are you sure those are going to fit without rubbing? The choice in wheel is a personal one. If you like it, use it.

One thing all car people need to know, "It's your car/truck/SUV do with it what you like, BUT 99.9% of people would have done this or that and they will tell you how wrong you are for doing it like this or that" with that said I hope I didn't come off as an ***, that wasn't my intention, You asked for an opinion, and I felt like I had to explain why not just give a no. Can't wait to see what the 7 looks like with them on.

No no not at all, I was just justifying my decision a little bit is all. I appreciate the feedback!

Can't confirm until I get the tires mounted but according to my math the backspacing should be abould 4.5" so they should fit ok. It's worth noting I'm using GSL-SE Suspension front and back so I'm not working around 12A car offest and bolt pattern anymore. I do really lioke the wheels, especially at the price I got them at. Sub $1K is pretty good for real Ray's Wheels.

Oh, and as far as diameter, the difference is .8 Inches. 22.5 to 23.3"
