New RX-8 Owner!

Just bought a black 2005 RX-8 with 26,000 miles. The only thing I have a problem with is the wheels it comes with. It's hard to explain which ones they are...its the 5 spoke wheels with the thinner spokes. Oh well, still an RX-8 and I LOVE it!

Are they the same wheels as in my sig pic below? Man, I love those rims. For stock wheels, they look good I think - and so easy to clean. Those 18's look sweet cruising away from my driveway. Congrats on the 8!

Do the rims look like this? These are the 16" that came standard on the AT models without sport pkg. They are one of the ugliest rims Mazda could have selected.

Big AT v MT camp on here. I'm in the 8's are best with MT camp.

OMG YES! They are so GROSS! Any ideas on what I should do? Most of my friends and people around here have no idea what an RX-8 is so it wont be that bad but its a pride thing for me. They're disgusting and must be changed. Any ideas on where I could get the 18's from?

Look in the For Sale section of this site. Post that you are looking to buy. Look on Craigslist and eBay.
