That is OMG Hot!!!! I love the Strato blue (I believe that's the color name). Wonder if it will look that good in WB. I want the brake calipers too.

Sure would be nice to have calipers & rotors that looked like that. Among other parts . . .

Nice egg yolk in the clear corner.

I have those Mazdaspeed wheels sitting in my closet. Waiting for my RX-8 to be built and delivered early next year. Just can't wait to put them on!

I bought the wheels from JapanParts back in October 2006. They are sized 18.0 x 8.0J + 50
They were a little over $500 each including the center cap. They are lighter than the stock wheels too.

My RX-8 is scheduled to built in January, delievered here to Texas in March/April 2007.

There's a red 8 in Japan that already have them on. The pics are small but you can find them in this thread....

Has anyone seen the rear, yet? I'm curious what the spoiler and bumper look like.

Thanks in advance.

Those aren't actually the Mazdaspeed wheels, they are 19" Advan AVS Model 5's. They do look very similar to the new Mazdaspeed wheels but have slightly more curve to the spokes (not to mention they are bigger in size than the stock size 18x8's). Not sure why they did this, but the original silver Mazdaspeed 8 also had Advan wheels on it (Connoisseur 51C) when it was first shown instead of Mazdaspeed wheels.

Advan Model 5 wheel:

That MS Version II looked a hell of a lot better than this new MS MZ Spec Version.

I'm suprised that blue cars kiit/fenders never went into production.
