Im suprised by searching through the forum that there are very few (if any) people who are sitting on higher end wheels. I think a MS3 would look amazing on some te37s or some Advans. This is kind of a useless post i guess, but if you have them or can find pics of someone elses car, post em up!
no highend rims?

I'm considering ponying up the bucks for Volks or Advans.
But then again, I love the way the RX8 wheels look on our car.

Honestly I think it because most people aren't worried about "baller status". 2 to 3k could be spent somewhere else in my opinion. Especially in areas where bad roads and potholes are an issue.

I like the idea of having a wheel that isn't already on everyone else's cars.
And a wheel in the 16lb range can hardly be discounted as a performance mod. Saving 32lbs of rotational mass would be a noticeable improvement!

thats what im talking about^ Using a blanket statement that "most" people aren't interested in baller status rims is a little shortsighted. Just because someone owns the same car as you, doesn't mean they have the sames plans for it as you do. There are many reasons someone might want nice wheels. Most the higher priced rims look better, and are offered in a wider variety of sizes/offests in addition to weighing less than most wheels. Most of the people i've seen who put aftermarket wheels on this car end up making it look worse, so i would like to see some that actually look good!
