You'll have to buy new tires eventually, might as well get a wheel size that you want now.

those rims are disgusting. wow. i mean even the pictures show them on a SUV or what not, and a magnum... but for the 8? eeek.. unless your a "rapper" these "to me" would look nasty on our 8's. thats just me.

Here's my black 8 with anthracite hiro's and chrome lip . They're not really black but close. Also, mine are 19's but they now have them in 18's.

Your car is actually my desktop wallpaper right now. Very sharp.

I never really liked the look of the black with polished until yours. Then again they're anthracite.

I've got these in stock. They are the only set in North America. We got them in as a sample of offerring black as a standard option. These were intended for my RX8 but I decided to stick with my other wheels and just took pics of these installed to show you guys.

Forged Two piece wheel from Japan. Manufactured by Enkei Japan Factory, same as all their race bred wheels. Retail: $2650.00, but we can do sponsorship offer on these at 30% off, $1855.00 plus shipping.

They are 19x9 and 19x10 in a +45 offset.







I might have a few other options also, but these are what we have in Black/Polished lip.'

These are not Taiwan cheap wheels, you'll definitely be able to appreciate the strength and appearance of these wheels.

For some odd reason no one has posted the 19" Volk SF Challenge as seen on FE3P's car in the "black on black on black" thread.

Pick rims you like and get 'em painted black. It will run you about 100 - 130 per wheel, but you'll be the only one to own a set like that....I did that with my Axis Milanos and love the turnout...Now I just need a drop...total damage with tires was around 2500.
