^^ Is it just an illusion but the sidewalls look huge? Did you maintain the same overall tire/rim height not to throw off your speedo, the rubber looks tall and flexy. The 50 series tires really adds a lot of sidewall.
What were you running originally, 205/55-16's? They do look great with the silver. Wonder how a 215/45-17 would have fit, they would only had a slightly smaller over diameter over the 16's by .3

i was thinking that after the rims were on too.... the sidewall does seem really... big....
but they are 50 series, stock mazda3 17" tire size.
18 woulda looked way nicer, but those get pricey.....
altho, i kinda do wish i went with 18's, cuz im gonna have this car for quite a while...
but it'll look WAY better once my calipers get painted red, and i eventually lower my car
