Mazdaspeed Forums - HELP!!!wheel fitment ROTA GRID

Jesus, tittyfucking, Christ. WTF dude? Your car looks like ass. You don't understand what "performance" means. You clearly have no mechanical sympathy or sense, and your grammar is atrocious. Of these issues, I've (partially) fixed the only thing I can.

I'm going to be back in Michigan in the next few weeks, and I'm sorry to hear that you've taken one of the few surviving Michigan MS6s and turned it into such a hideous piece of shit. It's people like you give Mazda owners a bad name.

Go find some of your kin over at M247 and get that shit out of here.

Hey guys,

I am new to the communi(deleted "c")ty(deleted "and"). Hi to everybody!!!:biggthumpup:
I am in the Detroit area. Is (deleted "so") anyone nearby?

Okay, so I am looking to buy a set of Rota Grids for my Speed6 in the summer,(inserted space) but the only 18-inch wheels they make with a low ET are 18"X9.5" et38, or et20. They look(deleted "it's") so sexy on these cars but, I really don't have a (deleted "the")clue (deleted "that") if they're going to (deleted "this" deleted "gonna") fit (deleted "in") on my '06 Mazdaspeed6 or not. I have seen (deleted "saw") a lot of threads talking about this, but some (inserted space) say they will (deleted "it") fit (inserted space) (you will just need a fender roll(deleted "ed") and no rub at all), (inserted space) some (inserted space) say they will (deleted "it") fit, but take a lot of work (roll(deleted "ed") and pull(deleted "ed") the fenders), still others just say it's stupid to put those on because they will (deleted "it") rub(deleted "s") like shit. (deleted "~")

(deleted "So") I don't know what I should do about this, but I really like those rims, (inserted space)so cananyone (deleted) help me here?

I have (deleted) H&R Coilovers and right now they are (deleted) set mid-way.

Basically if Ijust need a fender roll(deleted "ing") to have no rubbing while driving without someone sitting in the rear, I think I would buy these, (inserted space)so does anyone have any suggestions or (deleted "and")advice?

My MS6 and 240 (deleted "lol"):

I wish they had 18"X8" et38 but they only have et44 in that size.
So, do you think that if I should put the et38 on that I will still need a pull?

If you're going to use proper nouns, they should be capitalized. Japan is a country. Countries are proper nouns. Therefore, "Japan" should be capitalized, as should "Japanese." Moreover, if you're going to call someone out as an "idiot," at least fucking spell it correctly. If you insist on calling people "idot" then you should be aware that the dot on an "i" or a "j" is called a "tittle." So at least use the correct terminology.
