ke11restorer Posted July 10, 2008 Author Report Posted July 10, 2008 Mazda 626 Stockies? Nahhh. I prefer RX3 Style stockies, or Mazda Van Rims. But I'll be getting hubbies I assume. If not some period style jap racing wheels :P Quote

ScottKE1X Posted July 10, 2008 Report Posted July 10, 2008 I had the same thoughts with my ke15. hubcaps or period race rims.... I think the race rims are the way to go with the sprinters. what parts you chasing? Scott. Quote
