CA Black rims for RX8?

I have a black RX8 and I'm trying to find a nice set of black rims to go on it.
I've searched around online but I haven't found a set that just "pops" out at me.

Anyone have any that look good?


Looking for either all black or black with a red lip

+1 on Topgears ride. His hood really sets his car apart.

OP,

Checkout the Calling All Brilliant Blacks thread. Lots of different wheels on black 8s. IMO though the BB looks best with some contrast.

Enkei RPF1s are popular. nvrfalter has a nice set up with black rims/red lip.

Volks TE-37's. Such badass wheels!
These is Newcastle's car, he has a thread on the wheels if you do a quick search.

RIms are so important because they can give your care your own special flavor. i picked some that i rarely see, only had the car a couple of weeks, next mods are tints and cold air intake and exhaust!
