Pulled off one of the stock 17s yesterday to make sure a 16" steelie fit. It did fit and would turn freely but there was only about a half inch between the caliper body and the interior face of the rim. Does anyone think that could be an issue? I can't imagine a slightly larger steel rim being...

Very sweet! You do really nice work! I am diggin' the white rims.

I haven't purchased my winter rubber yet. I'm going down from 17" alloys to 16" steelies, for my winter wheels. I shouldn't have an issue with fitment will I? I assume they should clear the brake calipers just fine, right? I have also been reading about the TPMS for my car, if I get an extra...

2011 Mazda 3 GT (6MT) I've been averaging 28mpg on my daily commute(40%hwy/60%city). Best I've gotten was 33.5mpg coming back from NoDak.

A set of 16x7 with the appropriate bolt pattern. Offset will be slightly different... might stick out about 6mm more than my stock ones. Paid $60 for the set of 4. All they need is a quick sanding to get rid of a little surface rust and then some new paint. I just want to make sure that I...

I agree. I think you need to approach your buddies and ask for some cash to do the repairs!

I still need to make sure the steelies that I bought, will work on my car. I still need to pick up new winter rubber. Any suggestions? I was running Firestone Winterforce on my Outback when I had that car. I was happy with them and they weren't too expensive.

Bummer. Sundays in Oct are not good for me. I would have like to attend. Oh well.

I have only purchased Curt Mfg hitches. Nice quality and easy to install. I will be installing one on the Mz3 very soon.

Thule roof rack setup. Towers mount directly into the track on the roof. I had my bike trays on there for extra stability. Guessing you would drop about $350-$400 for towers, fit kit, and bars (new).

Menards run last night. 4 sheets of 4x8x1/2 plywood 20- 8ft 2x4s. Eden Prairie to Chaska. Shifting was a bit tricky but I made it work. I feel confident I could have fit more building supplies if I had needed them. :)

Are yours the flat urethane or molded? Rally Armor seems to only have flat urethane ones for my model year.

Not a bad idea!

Looking at possibly adding some mud guards/flaps on my Mz3. Any of you guys currently running them? If so, what brand? The only ones I have really found, are Corksport and $109 for 4 chunks of flat urethane seems a bit steep. https://www.corksport.com/corksport-mazda-mud-flap-set.html

What are you asking for it? I don't believe I saw a price listed.

Good thing I don't eat Cheerios! HA! I just figure it never hearts to try. There is no reason to just settle for something because you think it can never change.

Minnesota has one of the most restrictive automotive tint laws in the country, and tint tickets start at over $100 dollars. Ignorance may be no excuse, but many people getting pulled over weren't even aware that they were breaking a law, and are hardly criminals. Such a strict law hurts...

The EP location of Panino Brothers is fairly new. If you haven't been there yet, you should check it out. They have great food and the place it huge! They also have a nice patio.

Yeah, would have chosen differently but choices were limited. Miller Lite is far from my favorite but oh well.

There is a Beer Bust going on at Panino Brothers in Eden Prairie, this Saturday, June 30th from 3-6pm. $10 All-U-Can-Drink Miller Lite. Here is a little more info: http://www.facebook.com/events/325997274138789/
