I would like to get a spoiler for my 8, but I don't want to order one from a website and it be really ugly on the car. In your guys opinions what is the best looking spoiler for a rx8 besides the mazdaspeed spoiler.

Next part.
I would also like to get a set of rims for the 8. What is your guys opinion on the best set of rims (4 rims total) for a rx8 under $1000

Gto spoilers look pretty cool on rx8's but ms is the nicest imo. As for rims.. Either torrent photoshop and play with whatever rims you want or go on forza if you have an xbox or ps3 and go through thier options. I know theres someone on here selling xxr's that are freaking beautiful

For me, stock spoiler is the best. The rest looks to fancy for my taste anyway. For the rims, i'll look at the TireRack.com website, good luck.

MB Battles for the rims; America's Tire should sell them. I picked up a full set of 18x9.5 +15 gun metal grey MB Battles for 400$ out the door, it took along time but they are flexible on their prices, stick to your guns.

I'm sorry butt it is really your choice no mater what anyone thinks.

Best bet: Look up the regional section for your area. Go to club meets.

Then you can see in person what you like.

INGS +1 spoiler is my favorite, but as someone else said it's a personal opinion question.

see pics in link below

If you can find a Mazdaspeed spoiler, it's my personal favorite. Especially if you're looking for an actual spoiler instead of just a bump on your trunk. It's very classy compared to the park benches most websites sell.

I and a couple of others have installed a GTO spoiler on the car. You can go to my photo gallery to see how this looks. Because this is not a standard install, there isn't a template for the holes. I measured and marked 4 times to make sure I was drilling holes in the trunk lid right.

APR Performance GT-200 wing for me: https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-parts-s...g-wing-238671/

If I'm gonna run a wing, I want it to do something. Their website published a polar based on CFD. The glasswork is gorgeous.

Expensive though.

IMO, anything other than the OEM bannana rear spoiler looks unbalanced without something (splitter) on the front too.
