Springs and shocks.Go either Bilstein/Eibach or Koni/Eibach.

nothing wrong with a bit of rice :) I like it, however, if it was one LONG strip instead of 2 it'd look nicer :)

thanks for all replys and suggestion. these mazda wheels from my brother's car, but I have to say their quality quite good and lighter than OEM one.

led lights got from ebay can be took off easily. haha:cool:

I chosed MPS wheels because of
1. They perfectly fit my euro ( OEM : 225/45/R17 offset: +55, MPS : 225/40/R18 offset:+55), also they have good quality and lighter weight

2. Most Australian after market wheels (cheap one), quality I am not sure and design so bad.

3. though OEM euro's wheel was already nice, but in my opinion, their style is exactly for a family car or a luxury car . I was thinking can be more passion and more strong, for this point, MPS wheels is better.

i like.
i have always thought that the euro and the mazda 6 looked very similar and how well these wheels suit further reinforced that perception.

soz to be the one to disagree but i disagree... theyre boring and are too flat for
the beautiful euro.... maybe it needs lowering to make them work a bit more...
i cant see it though...

The wheels look good, however people who know cars will be able to point out that they are Mazda Wheels. Could be a positive or a negative!

How did you come up with the Timber centre cap idea? Wouldn't it have been easier to sand down the Mazda Logo, paint, and stamp on a Honda Logo.

Not too sure about the Led lights too. I would say a single strip would look neater. Or perhaps put them where your Fog lights are? I like your body Kit too!! Which one is that? Is it the Modulo kit?

Yeah doesnt look half bad....and since they are lighter then the oem euro's then a bit of practicality thrown in as well. Hows the gearing though, since they are 1inch larger?

id have a guess and say the wheels would be the same for radius, larger wheel, but lower profile (40 vs 45), so the change wouldn't be very large, but the ride would be a bit firmer.
x2 to loving the kit, esp the rear bar, and is that a boot lip spoiler i see? from the honda dealership you say... interesting, do you know the name of it?

Yes that is a Modulo kit. Which is an option OEM bodykit.

these bodykit are honda OEM, the boot lip spoiler I bought from Ebay and it is a BMW M3 style copy.
