RX8 wheels?

[18psiWhiteMS3]

post pics with rx8 wheels. i think they look great; also are they the same size rim as ours??? how much have some of you bought them for??

 

[hectik1]

18X8. Stock is 18X7.

i just got a set for $350... one wheel had a few scratches but overall great condition

they are 18x8 +50 offset and weigh 22lbs each I think

they are not yet on the car though, getting them powdercoated and new tires on it soon!

i like the rx-8 r3 wheels better. theyre 19's though =(

I put RX-8s on mine, along with Yokohama YK520s in 225/45. I think they look worlds better than the stock wheels.

hands down the rx8 rims look better over stock speed3's and 6's. excellent and a very cost worthy choice!

about to gnaw my arm off for a set of those wheels...

is yours a stock suspension? it looks lower...if putting a set of those on a stock suspension, what is the best tire size?

I like the 225/45s. I've read of some folks using 235/45s. My 225s touch the front of the rear fenders on driveway transitions, though. 235/40s work, so I hear.

Element your car is sick, now drop that thing on some coils or springs to close the gap!

Very nice .... I'll probably be looking into getting some of those eventually, too

Yeah thats the plan. I'm probably going to go with the MS Coilovers.

I had them professionally painted. The stripe is actually red paint.

i think the only better thing about rx8 rims is that they're probably a bit easier to clean. other than that i think they're fugly as hell on a speed 3

What's the going rate for a set of RX-8 rims (w/ or w/o tires)? In good condition...

Got mine for $400, but that was in September. Economy's shittier now.

find a cocky younger guy with an RX8 and race him for his wheels.
Less than $3 worth of gas and you get a set of RX8 wheels.
* price depends on wether you get caught racing*
