Anyone have pics of RX8 rims on a Protege???

they look bad ass, but at the same time they look hella heavy. And come on man, the least you could do is wash your car before taking the pics, it prolly looks 10x better clean. they would prolly look best on the spicey, then titanium. but they are probably expensive as hell so i wont be interested in doing it. i like my Racing Harts.

umm, if you look at the last pic, the front tire looks kinda chewed up, so it obviously rubs like crazy. Hell, even the inside and side of the fender look a little chewed up from rubbing issues. IMO definatly sweet looking, but not worth it. There are much better looking rims, and cheaper ones, that won't rub and **** ur rubber, and your fender.
 
i just had to=). im doing research for my future set up on a similar size rim.
 
prolly 3-5mm spacers. Any more you'd have to extend lugs. I doubt anyone would put new lugs in just to run a diff set of stockers. I'm kinda mixed with those. They look good when there clean. But they also look like 20's because of the fatness of the spokes. I beleive there are pics of a yellow msp or mp3 running these somewhere on this board
 
ask mickey. he's got them on his sedan



So do I Buddie, I was almost the first in these forum, not to say the first MSP with them on:

i have rx8 also fell in love with the look from mazdaspeed20035... how you get back so low coil overs ? does it rub.. i was thinking 215-40-18
 
i wasplanning on taken pics tomrow.. stay posted. sorry the lip is yellow its geting painted now this pics is about 3-4 month old.
 
They look like they stick out a little bit. If you were to lower the car down, they look as if there would be some fender lovin' goin on. RX-8 wheels are 18x8 and most 18's for MSP are running 18x7.5 no? Can anyone shed some light? Looks hella tight and I love the way Mazdaspeed2oo35 looks. Word!
 
no no rubbing problems.. there 18x8. on 215-35-18. kumho ast.. im lowerd on s-tech... my car sits in the back when i hit the gas... no rubbin... plus im a big guy...(mspb) ill probly change my rear shocks to lower the back.. to luminas
