Went up to the Mountains with 3 MS3 and 2 non Mazda's and the new Tires definitely handled awesome. I still don't want to race a Speed on a straightaway, but at least I can hang in the corners 
The Motorcycle wasn't with us.

I "think".... WE NEED MORE PICTURES!!!! YEAH!
But I will express my personal opinion which is that I am sick and tired of red and black MS3's and that yours is a VERY welcome change from them.

Nice Ken, thought the color is off. A little heavy on the blue in those pics. You might want to check/reset your camera's white balance.
Got any more?
How are you liking the wheels?

Not my Camera, since I am still learning mine the pics were a little fuzzy, but the color was right on mine, the camera was just a little drunk from the ride in the back seat
I love the rims and the tires have about half the noise the Bad Years did.
So far, the tires handle awesome in the rain and I am still here with a straight car after the snow this morning so they must have done OK then also.
As for handling in the dry, I think I am going to try 34 pounds in the rear instead of the 36 I have right now, at about 70 in a 30 MPH corner is felt a little loose, not real bad but it was getting there, and the 38 in the front seemed about right. And they are very Sticky

I have never warmed up to True Red, though in certain circumstances it can look good. I think it's funny that Mazda has brought Velocity Red Mica back. It should've never been replaced w/TR.
Of course, that is only my strong opinion.
