Default Mazda3 Hatchback sp23 Rims/Mods

What are some inexpensive yet good looking rims for a 2005 Mazda3 Hatchback sp23?

Or any other good visually looking mods for it?

It's my 18th birthday and my mom is letting me do some stuff to my car for a reasonable price. Below is a link to what color my car is.

Any help would be appreciated!

That depends entirely on personal taste. I'd recommend just spending some time checking out tire rack, etc. and look at all the different styles available.

Bear in mind that the sp23 wheels are different from the standard 3 in that they have a high gloss paint on them. If they're in good condition you may be able to sell them for something to offset the price of the new wheels a little.

As for other mods I highly recommend retrofitting heated side mirrors (~$80-100 to retrofit, ~$200 to replace PnP with OEM ones, ~$300 to replace with aftermarket power/heated/turn signal/power folding ones). They make a huge difference with snow/ice/rain/fog.

Beyond that assuming you have the OEM HID headlights I recommend doing a TRS clear lens swap for your projectors.... will improve the headlights look and output significantly.
