I happened to get my hands on some 2009 RX-8 Wheels


They're off to the powdercoaters to get a gunmetal finish! :D woohoo!

 

Nice!!!

 

I would have gone with bronze.

 

ya. Very nice. Seen those on an 8. Sweet. Remind me of my old CEC rims I had on my Milennia...

Time

 

HOT. what color/year is your 8?

 

sweet! those rims looks great in person.

 

awesome blossom

 

be sure to go bronze when you buy a set

 

These wheels are going on my 2004 Winning Blue RX-8. Within the next week or so they will get powder coated Gunmetal.

As for a choice.... My fiance has been looking for the 09 Gunmetal ones that are 19inch, which were quoted $2100 each from the dealer.

We happen to find these on ebay. They were the only set of 09 wheels we have found in the last few weeks of searching.

we paid a total of $760 for the set including center caps. plus a 400 mile drive to Indiana to pick them up!

 

Cant wait to see the pics!

 

not bad at all.

 

Oh just like the 40th ed rims yea?

 

yeah just like the 40th edition. but these were off an 09. i called the dealer here in chicago and they quoted me like 1100 per wheel! hahaha

i started a build thread for the 8 if anyone is interested. got a pic of my other project in there too

 

I just talked to the dealer yesterday about these rims. He said they were like $600 each for the 18in. They look awesome and it makes me want to go buy an 09' just for the wheels!
Can't wait to see how they look on your, as mine is WB also.
