I took a couple of quick pictures of my car right after I washed it a few minutes ago. It was about to start raining, so the lighting sucked.

Anyhow, I finally had my new AME Circular R wheels (carbon silver finish) mounted, along with Tein S-tech springs and Tokico D-spec shocks. In the pictures it looks like the front rides higher than it really does because of the driveway incline. I'll try to take some level pics once the weather clears up a bit.

For more specs on the wheels:
Front: 18x9 +45
Rear: 18x10 +50

Tires:
Continental CSC2
Front: 245/40
Rear 275/35

I'd like to give a special thanks to Rishie over at Auto RnD for help with selecting the wheel sizes and offsets. It turned out exactly the way I wanted it to (better pics will show more detail).
EDIT: I just wanted to add that Rishie was really patient with my crazy need for every last detail involved with ordering the wheels, timelines, and fitment. Rishie also did a perfect job of reading my mind when it came to fitment and the overall look of the car even though I didn't send him any pics of what I wanted it to look like. Beyond that, I got a truely kick-*** price on the wheels, and they were delivered as promised almost to the day.

I'd also like to thank Dave over at Speed Machine Performance in Vista for helping with the spring and shock purchase and install. They do AWESOME work and babied my car as if it was their own while they worked on it.

I'm looking forward to working with both of them soon for brake parts and a flywheel/clutch install.

damn
they dont rub in the rear

 

nice who ever did the paint on the kit did a good job.

 

looks almost like rishies car, just different a color...looks good

 

very nice!!

 

It's a genuine Mazdaspeed kit, so supposedly the colors should all match. The sides and rear are the only parts that came painted. They match pretty well, but I can see a difference in tone with my eye (kit is a bit lighter). The front didn't come painted (because I bought the kit after they stopped making the car in yellow), so I had to have it painted. The body shop in Irvine did a pretty good job with the color, but again the tone was off, so I had them blend in the front so it matched better.

Overall, I'm really happy with the way the car looks right now.

 

looks good man

 

Nice choice of wheels, man! The color works really well with the yellow. Offsets looks spot on too.

I didn't even know you could put a 10" tire on the rear.
