Hi all,

My car is more or less like this one but with back windows tinted: http://www.inhdwallpaper.com/wp-con...-cx-3/2016-mazda-cx-3 cars colouring pics.jpg

And i would like to get new wheels/rims on it. Any suggestions on what would look good with this colour? I was thinking black/matte black but im not sure how it would look on a 16 inch tire since everyone seems to be rocking at least 17-18inches

Enkeis are really good / affordable aftermarket rims. Very lightweight. I think RPF1s would be badass on CX3s

In terms of styling of the wheel i think it's all personal preference, I usually prefer 5 spoke regardless of vehicle.

Would the bigger wheels and the low profile tires help in the handling of the car?

Yes, at the cost of ride comfort.

If you can't find a black set you like gun metal grey looks awesome on white cars.

Thank you for the replies everyone.

Would the 16 inch wheels look decent though? Im just scared it'll look awkward, but i do love the comfort of 16 inch and would prefer not to spend extra to get the whole 18inch wheel+tire package

Ive searched online and on this site but cant find an example of aftermarket 16inch wheels on a cx3.

In all honesty, I think 16" is a bit small for CX3s as our wheel wells are quite large. Additionally, you will be riding lower (but maybe you want that)

When I look at my 18" oem GT wheels, I think it looks satisfactory and balanced. If i were to get aftermarket, I would even opt for 19" for a bit of a more aggressive look.
