mazda3
17x6.5 +52.5mm (is this for real??? LOL)
weight alternatively reported as 19.4 lbs or 22 lbs

mazda6
17x7 +55mm
weight unknown

imo the sizing for either wheel is too crappy to be worth wasting money on. 17x6.5? is that a joke? lol. 17x7 is only marginally better.

Holy Crap , I didn't think they had that big of an offset. Well now I am not even thinking about getting them. Thanks for the info.

rx8 rims, 18x8 I think the offset if +50 so you would probably need a ~10mm spacer.

Well with my spacer conversions we can make this work and make them hubcentric, just like we did with the FD wheels.
