My RX-8 and my wife's Mazda 6s

I just got my new wheels installed on my 8 and put my OEM wheels on my wife's Mazda 6s five-door. The wheels are Motegi DPK 18" hyper-black with 40mm offset. I can't claim originality with these wheels, but where I live, RX-8's are quite rare and I've never seen these wheels anywhere other than this site.

Thanks! After buying wheels, springs and snow tires, I had to cut corners somewhere :D

Just know you need to roll the fenders on the mazda 6 with the 8 rims. They will rub on both the top, and the front of the rear fender. (All on the rear wheel wells).

I believe his are silver. Mine are called hyper black. I don't know why. It looks like brushed stainless steel in person. There's nothing black about them.
