Rice, or Nice?
While at the parts store spotted a little package all to itself and thought "gotta have it!" Then I started having second thoughts. "Too tacky"? Wife says no, it's cute and she put 'em on. I'm still undecided

Subtly irreverent. I like 'em!

(Gyro, those are the Dunlop Sport 8090 tires, an alternate OEM tire that started appearing on the December delivery RX-8s)

Gordon

ehhh...... I think it is ok... (despite the furious peer pressure). If it is a rotary shaped 8 ball then you can shut them up

But subtle tacky. Understated tacky. I mean, they're awful small. It's ironic, so that's cool.

Lose 'em. Put those on your dune buggy, or something like it. They are cute, but everything has its place. Just MHO.

I guess if you are a billiards shark then it's OK. Go with you instincts and don't get them, however; I must confess that I used to have the skulls on my BMX bike back in the day.
