Had a 96 mazda millenia come into the shop today... saw the 15" rims and thought they would look really good on a FC.

They're 9 spoke 5 lug, with a mazda logo in the center.

Didn't snap any pics... but wondered if possibly anybody put them on their FC or has pics of them that I could photoshop...

 

Here's the only pic of the wheel i can find... no cap on it though.

What do ya'll think?

 

kinda boring looking to me.. I like the 5 spokes you've got on there now

 

yeah i like the ones on your Fc

 

I don't know, the millienia rims look kinda nice. I would like em better if they were chrome!

 

They look decent...Might look really cool if you got them powdercoated or painted a little bit darker.

 

IT won't work. The FC rims are all ~42 offset, maybe 45 at most. Milly rims are ~55 offset, so they'd stick way in. They'd prolly hit the strut/s spring perch, and/or rub brake hardware. Not to mention looking shitty from the front/back.

Also they have a larger hub bore, so they wouldnt be centric on an FC hub, and they would vibrate a bit.

I know all this because my wife has a milly.

IF you were to try, I'd get the 99+ split-5 spoke 16's, or the S millenia 17" chrome 5 spokes.

 

millenia fwd
rx7 rwd

any questions!

 

^
what does that have to do with rims?

Kevin.... thanks for clearing everything up

 

I saw a 626 yesterday with vert bbs wheels without center caps and it looked alright.

 

Even if they would fit, I like the stock 91 rims you've got on there better anyway. They look good, are easy to clean, and are pretty light.

 

Thats my 95 millenia, you can probably swipe a wheel and photochop it.

 

They look kinda like the GXL rims without the gray metal between the spokes.

 

Thanks for the pic Wanked FC!!!

Photoshoppin now

 

VERY crude photoshop....

Dont look very good, not as well as I thought it would. I was lazy and didnt feel like doing the rear...

 

Quick and shitty job, but it gets the point across. Wheels weren't big enough in pic so the front wheel looks distorted to ****, oh well.

 

Yep... definately don't like it.

Oh well... good idea while it lasted.

 

Doesn't look horrible, but I don't think i'd put the millenia wheels on my fc.

 

ouch, that **** is ugly. I'd go with vert rims, 100 times better.

 

u try to interchange them
then post your results!
