i don't like it. I think it's too much for a stock car and will draw way too much attention.
You should try a darker gunmetal with a hint of this teal. It may come out nicely

i actually like the contradiction of the stock body rx8 with bright wheels. like little school kids holding machine guns or soldiers holding water guns.
originally i was thinking about going with piano black. but then i realized that everyone and their grandmothers paint their wheels black. has a played out look to me now. i want something new. i wants style thats fresh.
My biggest problem is that I don't think the stock wheel design goes well with flashy colors. I personally like unique wheel colors, but you have to pair it with the right wheel. I think colors like chrome, silver, grey, gunmetal and black work fine on the stock wheels. I want to say I've seen a copper color that looked alright too. With a color like yours, I'd definitely say it needs to be on a different wheel.
A color like that could be pulled off on a white or black car that was dumped on the ground with pretty agressive fitment. Any other way, it will just stand out and look odd IMHO.

im all for the aggressive fitment if i could have it now. any color wheels look better properly fitted.
other color combo's i would like to see more of on our cars would be "highlighter" yellow wheels on blue rx8, "construction cone" orange on galaxy gray rx8, "solid gloss" yellow on black rx8, glossy baby blue on red rx8.
in order for these color schemes to look their best, the cars would have to look low with aggressive wheels and sticky icky tires.
sorta the same look and feeling from looking at a clean sport bike.
