For real. It honestly looks like someone went into Microsoft Paint and outlined it in white or something. Do you have a picture of these "wheels" on a different 8?

I saw those at Discount Tire while I was getting the wife's 3 some fresh rubber. Pretty nice, and I too thought they'd look good on the 8. If you squint hard enough, they'd look like a pointer, lighter version of the R3 wheels.

haha yup used ms paint for a 5 min quick rendition of how these 09 OE wheels would look. i might buy a full set with tires and tpms with only 5k mles on it for $600-$700. think its a fair price?

19's are bitching, but bumpy

those are only the stock 2009 rx8 18's, i dont think ill like the 19 r3's. i like how they look but the thought of how the 19's will affect the handling scares me a bit. im just concerned how the wheel design will mesh with the 08 and earlier body lines.
