I'm so confused! Are they getting discontinued? Are they just not making any profit off them?

Store is well known in it's area. A lot of good comments.
Work authorized dealer as well.
Yeah man, price is intense. I'm scared though.

This thread needs more Pics, not an 8, but still a rotary. Mazdaspeed's BBS RG. 17x8.5+25 245/40R17 R1R. Good enough for this thread?

My setup for trackday's at Sekia Hills.

This guy posted this pic in another thread of his SS with the same style rims as mine but in black (obviously). I don't know the specs but it looks hard. Just needs some aero.

Okay so I tried out my 527 today didn't like them at all :-/, there up on wheel flip now.
Now I'm wondering what will be a good upgrade from 9.5 MBbattles?
I want to go with 18x10 +20 or better, any suggestions? (price range $1500-$2000.)

Ugh, Avant Gardes most likely.

Go VMR or go home if you want this style. PM me for hook-ups
I've got a set of 19x11 ET25's going out to PC a super duper top secret finish soon.

I just thought this thread needed some new pics since it seems to have turned into the wheel recommendation/will it fit thread.

Never thought I would like the way VS-KF's look on our car. At least, until I saw these pictures. This car looks great, but I can't help but wish it were a bit lower. Not necessarily aggressive fitment, but I think it can fit in, nonetheless:
