FS: 17x7 MSR gunmetal rims
Since I just purchased a new set of wheels for my ride, I figure there's no sense in me keeping my old MSRs. So here they are, in excellent condition with tires included.
Had these wheels installed for almost two years and were ONLY driven during summer time. OEM wheels go on during the winter. There is absolutely NO curb rash whatsoever, no peeling/chipping/cracking, etc. anywhere on ANY of the 4 wheels. They are as good as new and were also just recently balanced. No vibrations on the highway, once again these wheels are as good as new!
One thing I want to mention is that the REAR was professionally machined by Smitty's Machine Co. in Cedar Falls, IA so they do not rub with a lowered suspension. They are +45 mm offset, and the fronts are +40 mm as purchased. I have Falken lowering springs which drop my ride height 1.5" all around and they do not rub at all even with 4 people in the car and a full hatch.
The tires being included are Cooper Zeon 2XS 205/40/R17 and are exactly identical to the Falken Ziex ZE-512 tires. The fronts are at about 60% or so, and the rears are as good as gone so don't count on these tires to do any wonders for you. They were good new, but are almost gone .. especially in the back. Pics included of all 4 with corresponding wheels.
Summary of Specs
-Size: 17x7
-Bolt Pattern: Dual 5x100 & 5x114.3
-Offset: +40mm front, +45mm rear
-Weight: 23 lbs.
Price: $600 shipped in the continental US.
*SOLD* on eBay!!

I know I know .. I'm a traitor. I'm all over the FS section of Mazdas247 but that's IT!! No discussion of any sort, strictly business. There's a lot of good deals to be had on there, and a lot more exposure when selling. Don't get me wrong .. I freakin love this forum .. it's like a second home to me but there's just not enough active members for buying/selling.
EDIT: Pics of tires included also. Tires correspond to the wheels in the order posted above in post #1.

I dunno much about Mazda 3's but the last I checked they had 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a 60mm offset. The bolt pattern should be the same but the offset may be too low on these. Don't quote me on that cuz I really don't know for sure ..
What year/trim of Mazda 3 do you have anyway so I can look into it for you?

Anyone know the offset of the OEM Mazda3 rims then?
EDIT: Found some info. +52.5 seem right to everyone? If so, I would say these might work out cuz the P5 ones are +50 and they didn't rub at all.
Based off the info I found on the forums these wheels should work without any problems. The bolt pattern fits, and the offset won't cause rubbing. My tires are also 205/40 and the other guy was using 215/50 .. so that should work ever better then. Hope this helps..

17X7 with 42mm offset and 215/50/17 tires DO NOT rub at all with stock suspension. a 42mm offset actually pushes the wheels 16mm out further than stock, filling in some unwanted wheel gap.
this combo may rub with anything more than a 1" drop.
