Here's few pics I snapped today. I got these ASA AR1's about 2 weeks ago, it finally got warm enough to clean her up!

Are they smaller than stock?


I like them, but the stock wheels looked bigger.

Tint is up next I think.

They are 18x7.5's, and I remounted the stock tires onto these wheels. The tires are 215/45-18. The rims are pretty polarizing, you either love them or hate them...at least theyre big enough to stand out....polished lips make wheels look smaller, no getting around that.

Thanks for the comments!

Very, very, very nice...., I am extremely jealous! There is a Mazda dealership about 15-20 minutes away & I have been very good about not going down there and test driving a Speed3. But after just staring and drooling at your car, well my wife is out of town on business & I do have tomorrow off........:rolleyes:

nice, i didnt know the speed 3 was out already, or is it getting revamped. how much hp/torgue, is that turbo'd with a limited slip, 4 cylinders or 6? im a real fan of the mesh style wheels on certain cars.

twisty....... where have you been? the Speed3 has been all over magazines :p
i know, but i only browsed through it. i didnt want to get to attached. i didnt see when it was coming and all that good stuff. best i can remeber is its turbo'd with the limited slip and has somehwere around 225hp or something like that. very nice car.

no 3 door was enough for me to not get attached :)
yes a 3 door would have been great, but when you get behind the wheel of a well designed car you start to forget the minor details. how do you feel about 4 doors(s4,m5,sti,evo) i would take anyone of those and they all are sedans, although i would still take a 2 door version of anyone of those rides or similar versions.
