hideous.

black is the only color that (tasteful) chrome rims work well with the rx8. (and most cars.)

unless you have a ghetto fabulous popper.

sorry dude.

At some point we have all made choices in life that we look back on and go, "What the F was i thinking?" This is one of those moments i believe for you my friend. Its an easy fix though man, put ur stockers back on, they look way better than those chrome Kmart looking rims on there now. These go beyond the whole"if you like em" route and need to be taken off

when i first looked at them i was just hopeing i wasnt gonna be the only one to say i didnt like them, i dunno why they just dont look right, i think lots of colors can pull of a nice clean look with chrome wheels, im just not liking those. i agree i would put the stockers back on sell those and try again. but were not the ones driving the car so if you like them than go with it, your the one that has to live with them not us
