05 corvette wheels? Looking for Similar wheel for rx8

Hey guys,
I went wheel shopping today and naturally the only wheel that i fell in love with was for the corvette and would not fit my car. Does anyone know of a similar wheel that looks like the following but would fit my car?

http://www.radicalwheelsinc.com/inde...&productId=103

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys!

PS, im looking for these wheels in either 18 inch or 19 inch, preferably 18.

If your looking at those and your willing to spend on what they were selling for, then get the Mazadaspeed version from Japan. they are made by enkei.

You can get them through Japanparts.com

Heh, i saw those earlier on this very site and i was like wow, those are awfully nice. I figured they were only concept wheels and they werent actually in production.
The only problem that i have with those wheels is that they're a little bit out of my price range. I would also really like at least some black on the rim.

I was looking at spending ~1800 for both wheels AND tires.

Btw, here is a better picture of the wheels that im looking for.

Still looking for a wheel styled exactly like the ones you guys are posted but in black with a machined face.

Thanks so much for all of the help you guys have provided thus far.

Now I don't know any exact web pages or have any pictures but you can try and google
Racing Hart
Konig
Volk
Roja

I don't know about prices on any but at least that could start you out and give you something to do for a while

I've got these on order.

They're theAdvan AVS Model T5

I was told that the Model 5 is no longer made. FYI 10-12 week wait for them.

ive always been a fan of racing hart, they don't have the wheel exactly the way you want but they do offer 4 different styles in the machined black finish

First thing that went through my head was Racing Hart. However, RH all have a deep lip on them.
