Hi everyone!

For sale: the ideal Autocross or track setup for your RX-8!

- Four 16x8, 5x114.3, +50 offset Mazda RX-7 FD series rims
- Painted black, each have some nicks and chips in the paint.
- Presently mounted with 245/45/R16 Hankook RS-2 rubber.

I purchased these from another Mazda 6 owner in Michigan. He had used them for track days, and according to him, he ran them all the way to 190kph on the track without vibration. Myself, I can verify they are good up to 110kph on the highway. One rim lip was repaired by the previous owner, but all four rims are straight and balanced.

Regarding tire wear, all four are on the wear bars. I wouldn't run these on the street myself, however they are great for Autocross, and still have some track use left in them. I measured ~2mm of tread on each.

Located in Waterloo.

Asking $550.

Please note that I have used these on my Mazda 6, so I can't comment specifically on how/if they will fit an RX-8. However, I'm pretty sure they will, and I'm open to test-fittings :D

PM me for details or post up with questions.

On with the pictures!
