This is me being super picky & OCD. They look superb, in spite of detailed faults I disclosed above.

I have these rims since early 2007, bought used. They were one of two sets that I used exclusively for autox (so taken on & off with no street miles), and another 15k street miles (my best estimate) when mounted to the current street tires.

I'm switching my setup from 18x8 to 17x9, so they are now up for sale. Just washed and waxed them for a good new home, hence the whitesh marks on the tire sidewall. The tires are corded and pricing is just for rims, so looking to sell $600 locally or $700 shipped, OBO (will dismount tires before shipping). Pictured center caps (x4) are included.

In addition to fitting RX-8, it should also fit Lexus IS250 & IS300, Nissan Altima & Maxima, Honda Accord & S2000, and VW GTI.

Ok to meet by Hayward/Berkeley/Walnut Creek for the local crowd.

 

bump. will consider reasonable offer. these rims will save you the pain of running a staggered setup, which is cool, but not great for rotating the tires front-to-back.

 

bumpity bump

I have not seen another car with these rims ever on the road, the exclusivity is cool.

 

Back to school bump for the school crowds.
