et40 above for 6.5j is quite rare.usually only can get stock rims with those specs.
advanti also recently produce this 6.5 et40 specially for bezza/axia.but only 2-3 design available if not mistaken

reason I'm asking is because picanto is quite particular when it comes to offset as well. ET40 is best suited but I can go for ET38 as well, just that the wheels will stick out more from the arch.... by around 2cm

I am planning on getting a set of used 13 inch JRD wira rims, those 5 spoke starfish ones. Is there anything that I should know about before getting those rims?

Yeah, currently I am using that steel rims on my saga sv. Since I have already have a pair of new viking ct5 tires at the back I thought I might just stick with 13 inch rims and get another pair
of dunlop J5.

suggest use 195/50/16 more suitable.205/50/16 high possibility can rub a little.feedback from city club members.

Hello guys,

Wanna ask your opinion.

Planning to change wheels & tyres for my Mazda CX5

Now it uses 225/65R17 & I plan to change to 18in tyres

After some searching, i've come down to this 2 options

- Enkei SC37
- Enkei RS05RR

Initially i want to get the Rays Gram Lights 57XMA but need to import & the price is way out of budget.

RS05RR

OR

SC37

Would like to hear your thoughts

1- Which of the rims above do u think looks best for compact SUV like CX5

2- The stock 17in tyre sidewall is 65 which i think too thick. Can I change to something around 50-55 for the aspect ratio/sidewalls? Will it significantly affects the car performance, driving dynamics etc?

beauty lies on the eye of the beholder.haha..i think the enkei rs05rr looks good.
however the rs05rr have original japan and immitation.which one are u looking at?
when u change to 18inch defnitely u have to lower the tyre profile maybe to 55 or 60.there are pros and cons.for example lower profile lower the gravity of the car which might improve stabilty.but u feel less comfort compare to 60 series tyres.

Thanks for the opinion.

Im looking at the original RS05RR

And also another option is the Varro VD06 which i think look sleek!

Actually, I want to go as low as 45 but 50 looks ok i think for the sidewall..

Will test it out later.

Yes this VD06 is super nice.

Btw my initial aim was the Vorsteiner V-FF 107 but thats only available for 19 & 20 inch PLUS it is tooo expensive! Hehe

This Varro wheels looks very similar to the VFF107 & it looks good also on SUVs.

Btw any tyre recommendations for this wheels? Plan to use sidewall around 45-55.

Looking at the Evo12 v2, Falken FK510 or the MC6. Im not sure whether all this tyres a suitable for SUV like CX5.

If talking original and you have the budget, then I'd pick the RS05RR coz I think it's the lighter of your choices (CMIIW) and the design is also timeless.

I totally support your decision to upgrade to 18 coz by doing this you have choices of those excellent UHP tires which you won't have with the stock size. As for the tire choices, your should go either with the new FK510 or V12E2 coz both are very well proven internationally as excellent high performance tires yet with much more reasonable prices, basically the best bang for the buck. MC6 is not yet well proven since it's mostly just for Malaysia market so I wouldn't get that unless no other choices available.
