ON own a mazda as well (mz3)! just not a rx7, at least not yet...

Hi guys,

Joined up at the suggestion of another member. I figured i might have better luck here finding some OEM FC 15 or 16" BBS wheels for a custom winter setup .

Here are some pics of my mazda3 on RX-8's (i like the OEM look/style). Mainly bolt-on, aesthetic and suspension mods (it is just a FWD econobox after all). Maybe when im done school, i'll be able to take on a RX-7 as a project or daily driver

thanks. the paint is nice, but the quality isn't that great. easily chips (not as bad as the first gen 3) and rust is another issue as well (none at the moment). im not if sure these are mazda issue in general, i certainly hope not...


also if anyone could offer some advice on whether or not it is safe to bore out 15/16" rx7 bbs wheels by 8mm, i would really appreciate it:
