I want Mazdaspeed RX8 Rims
 
Anyone know where I can find a set of four Gunmetal Gray Mazdaspeed RX8 Rims? I've been looking but they don't have the color I'm looking for on the Mazdaspeed website. They are all Gold. I'm looking for this: http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/1...x8.whl.500.jpg

I've been looking for brand new rims but haven't been able to find any so far.

if its from mazdaspeed. from what i know of, they only sell in that gold color. If your really want that color just buy it and then powder coat it anouther color.

What Mazdaspeed website did you see the Gold wheels on ? ( Interested )

The Alloys you have pictured are the Gunmetal version of the JDM Mazdaspeed MAG ( Magnesium ) wheel + these are ultra-light weight + ultra-expensive....

From the same review that the OP's pic came from:

HS, wheels look good but not $7k good. I'm sure they are tough and light, though.

XxSaMiRxXS 01-07-2009 03:30 PM

04RX8man 01-07-2009 04:01 PM

Idk how much they weight but it better b about 1.35lbs per wheel!! haha and give u an extra 200 HP

LionZoo 01-07-2009 04:11 PM

You can get them for much cheaper than the Mazda MSRP price. Check onlinemazdaparts.com. They're $488 each.

04RX8man 01-07-2009 04:15 PM

^still alot for rims when u could prob find them from any aftermarket store(yeah not mazdaspeed but same style) for a ton cheaper than 488 each

Renesis07 01-07-2009 05:27 PM

7K, is my 04 with 72K miles even WORTH 7K ANYMORE? :lol:

Wheels are a personal choice. Some people buy Volks for $600 or more a wheel and some get the Rota knock-off for $200 a wheel. Just because there's a cheaper version that looks about the same isn't a good enough reason to knock the price. $488 for a FORGED 18x8 wheel is not an unreasonable price.

04RX8man 01-07-2009 06:40 PM

Isuppose so but unless i was racing my car alot i PERSONALLY would not spend that much i would get a cheaper version and spend the extrra on exhaust or turbo or something i want AP?

you are wrong. they are $1300 each.

there is a difference between the magnesium wheels and the aluminum wheels. in weight. and price.

The OP did not mention magnesium, merely that he wanted the gunmetal.
