    Compare the size and offset to your last wheels. Offset is just as important as the size, if not more.

    Thought you said they already bought the tires. Are they going to pay for 19's when you had 18's on before?

    im not gonna do 19s. these offsets vary from 42-48mm which is what i was running with before. and state farm is only paying for 25% of two tires.

    19's would be big on the 3.. and you would need to lower the car to make it look nice, or get a kit. The 3 has big arches, and looks like a fat pig.. i think 19's could be pulled off. but i dont think u want to go thru that hassle!


    and i like these!

    18s hmm you might get lucky and not have to roll em, but you might scrap the front fenders, if that happens you need to roll em.

    I've seen a 3 with Rx-8 wheels and let me tell you the offset sits them flush and it looks good.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    The first ones resemble the looks of the Mazdaspeed wheels from about 10-ft back. To me, it's the cleaner looking wheel of the two and black faced wheels have been played out.
