those are mazdaspeed wheels. They are only available in 18" and are rather pricey.
I believe they were available in Japan for a limited time, not sure if they still are.

  • paimon is correct that the Model 5 is a very similar design but the Model 5 is discontinued.
  • RotaryRessurection: close but not quite. That car is sitting on Advan Model 5 wheels, not MS.
  • 9krpmrx8: that is one SEXY car! Those are the wheels that replaced the Model 5, they are Model T5's in 19x10 in the rear and 19x8.5 in the front.
  • jasonrxeight: thanks!
