Well my guy and I went and we treated him to tint and new shoes for the 6.. it was hot before but now I am definitely drooling..
As for my Civic, it's getting slowly returned to it's more simple self.. losing the muffler being I have decided I have grown tired of the whole muffler thing.. that and severe headaches lately aren't helping..
but enough blah blah here's the pics :)

Those rims look great....

....if they were flat black (my favorite). :wink4:

They are fitting insofar as looks go, for the car.

Not a big fan of chrome :-/

4kQuad, it's a 2.3L turbochaged I4. Here's what Mazda says:
The MAZADASPEED team began with the core architecture of the already impressive all aluminum MAZDA6 i powerplant, and modified it from end-to-end to become the 274-horsepower* engine worthy of the MAZADASPEED name. The single-scroll turbocharger produces up to 15.6 lb. of boost. The intercooler is top-mounted, rather than front-mounted to reduce polar inertia. The Direct Gas Injection system pumps fuel directly into each chamber, which improves fuel dispersion and helps cool the chambers. This allows for a comparatively high 9.5:1 compression ratio for a turbocharged engine without the risk of engine knock.

To deal with the extra torque, material enhancements include reshaped steel connecting rods with thicker rod pins, a steel crankshaft, and full-floating pistons. The overall result of MAZDASPEED’s effort is greater low-end torque, quicker turbo response and increased fuel efficiency.


RedFire, have you had any of the heatsoak problems I hear they've been having?

They look great; I was hoping you might pose in your stilettos with the 6.

lol JordanGT nice hehe.. I unfortunately don't own any stilettos.. haha..
Trish, yes the car is hot thanks for the compliment.. everyone else thanks for the compliments and Foxy for supplying the info on the 6..
4kQuad.. yes it's more pretty than the Honda, but I am a student and it's a good car for my budget.. I am going to be removing the muffler soon from it.. and after school I am actually going to be looking at an M3 I think.. the 6 is my guy's ride.. but he said he might trade me with the M3 lol..
Dave, yep one of my favorite angles for a shot.. I am a sucker for hot lights on a car..
thanks for the comments all :)

Oh and Foxy, my bf Cory hasn't noticed any issues with the 6 so far. :)

Nic, maybe I'm the odd guy out but I really don't care for those wheels at all. I've been seeing alot of cars in this area with those same exact wheels and I really can't say I like them. I think the 6 looked sexier and classier with the factory rolling stock. None the less, still a damn nice car.

John, never the odd guy.. lol.. Cory's excited to get rims on his car, and I thought it looked pretty sharp.. better than hubcaps anyday lol.. I'd take those over what I have on my lil wee car. We're all entitled to what we like and don't like.. ;)

I think the part I really dislike about them is how they bend. If they were a straight spoke or if they curved it would look alot better IMO.

I also woul dhave tried to put a larger tire on it to fill in a tad bit of wheel gap. Did the stock combo have as much of a gap?

Very nice, i am planning on those same rims in 19" very soon, i love them!

John.. those are the stock rubbers.. Cory's planning to use the stock rims with winter tires.. the stock rims made the wheel look larger, me and Cory both agreed on that, I even said the new rims made the car look like it needed a drop, but if we drop it the tires will rub the wheel wells.. it's just deceiving, but the same tire! 18"...

Troy, yes they're pretty sharp, get pics up when you get them!! I am still loving your avatar ;)

man, Mazda 6's are sexy...I like the 3's as well. I wanna get a black 3. I like it cuz it's smaller than the six and when i went from my Saturn coupe to the GA Sedan, i missed having a smaller car.

Can you put on anything wider than the stock 215's, or will it rub? What's the bolt pattern/offset, if you happen to know? The 6 has smaller brakes; I imagine you could go to 17's too, right?
