RX8 Wheels for SP23

Hi Guys + Gals,

I have an SP23 that I would like to fit some RX8 wheels to.

So, if anyone has a set of RX8 wheels, either in perfect condition or near perfect condition, let me know. My preference is for wheels without tires but ill look at anything. Also would prefer seller to be in Melb, but again ill consider any state.

Willing to pay a reasonable price for perfect rims.

If you have a new RX8 and are thinking of upgrading your rims, drop me a line.

Cheers!

Daniel

Daniel,

My RX8 wheels are on the market. However, they are not perfect and I'm in Sydney.

They have some small scuff marks on the outside edges of the rims. I think they are repairable but haven't bothered. They have been painted silver and are difficult to see at a glance or from any distance.

If you can't find perfect wheels (and they're aren't many out there for sale), come back to me via PM.

I dont remember signing a contract to buy them.

If we agreed on price, he would sell, I would buy. We didnt. No big deal.

Apparently he has a few buyers so im sure he will sell them.

I hear on the grapevine that for some reason SP23 wheels are considered to be worth more than RX8 wheels. Strange huh?

Yeah thats weird. Ide be more than willing to pay more than I think my wheels are worth for RX8 wheels that were in the same condition.

I have a few people interested in my wheels and tires but I think its cause they have done less than 2400KM.

Mazda are fools. If they only charged a reasonable price for the RX8 rims I would have bought them long ago. Even $500 a rim would be half acceptable though still expensive.

So what are you asking for your SP23 rims?
