I would love to the see the Mazdaspeed rims from the performance package on other different coloured rx8s. Also if anyone has an 8 with the appearance package along with the mazdaspeed rims post pics aswell? stormy blue mica if possible. I would love to see what the stormy blue rx8 with the performance package rims look like with the appearance package.

Here is mine:



just because i am thinking of getting the appearnce package and would like to see what it looks like in advance with those rims

I don't have a stormy blue mica one, but I have a white one with the perf package and the ms wheels.

Those rims look ugly on the stormy blue mica. IMO.

buzzzzzz

i think the stockers look better imo

JurassicIce

really? I love them

jb4wc

I'd have to agree..not the best look my2c.

I was never a fan of these rims, on any color of the 8. By chance did the dealer give you the stock 18's as well? if they did I would switch em over and use these ones on your car for the winter, if you drive her in the winter.

I like them, they somewhat remind me of my winter rims. But mine are smaller.

i'd paint them another color. maybe bronze (i have a vr) but i think the design is pretty decent.

silver rims = passé.

Those rims aren't really that good looking.

No, i created a whole thread in the Canada forum regarding wheather or not the dealer was suppose to return all stock items along with the perofrmance package items. I never got anything stock back, so no rims. Im going in Monday to have a little talk. I would love to get the stock rims, put them on during the winter, and have the mazdaspeed rims on during the summer.

Im in Ontario, and my dealer was giving the stock rims along with these.

But you should consider powder coating them BRONZE! or even a darker Gold. That would look hot on your Stormy blue!

dothackRAVE

They sell em with Speed stuff now?

JurassicIce

Like this colour?

jb4wc

i'd say um...No, to that color.

JurassicIce

I dont know about you guys but I think Silver looks good on my 8.

oh i love that color, car, rims the whole package!

JurassicIce

there we go! lol some positive answers about looks.

JurassicIce

bump, anyone out there with a stormy blue mica with appearance pacakge + performance mazdaspeed rims?

SideOfBacon

Think it would look better chrome, versus the dull silver look.. just my .02. not saying it looks bad, just what would look better.

chetrickerman

i think the silver goes good with the blue. the appearance package should enhance it even more. i say go for it

GeorgeIngleton

I can't see chrome looking good on an 8. I like the color and the rims as they are, a deep bronze wouldn't be too bad either.

JurassicIce

what if I just get the front air dam? is there anyone out there with an 8 with just the front air dam?

chetrickerman

yes, but IMO, it doesnt look right
