Looking good fastlane! Be careful with those near curbs - my V-10s have the same profile, where the spoke sticks out a bit at the tire, and gets no protection. An incredibly poorly designed Starbucks drive-thru got my unaware and led to some curb rash on one mine

Anyone know a of a good place to pick up a momo center cap for the V10s? I bought a set used and I know if I put them on with a missing center cap it'll really bother me.

The best I found so far was $20 shipped off the 'bay.

Vyndictive - I was in Tire Discounters today and I saw that they sold Momo wheels there - you might give them a call to see if they can get a spare cap ordered. Not sure if it would be cheaper than ebay or not, but it might be worth a try and that's the only place I can think of off the top of my head where I've seen Momo wheels in a store.

Fastlane they look great... Ive been waiting to see them on an 8... That is my second fav wheel from Momo... Now you need a drop

Vyndictive.... Try emailing Momo USA... I got a bunch of "free" or promo stuff because I was putting their name out there... they will prob help you out... Tell them your part of the 8 club.

I've been thinking about picking up some Momo V-10's with the silver finish for my galaxy gray 8. However, I have not been able to find them on tirerack or discount tire, any suggestions where I can look?

Also, if I get the 18's will they be able to fit with the stock RX-8 tires?

Dominator - I believe they have stopped making the V-10s, if I remember correctly. They no longer have them shown on the www.momousa.com website, and I believe I had heard from someone who contacted Discount Tire about them that they were told they were out of production.

Honestly, not sure where to look to get them, maybe eBay? If you were near Ohio I'd be willing to part with mine for the right price (though they're 19s)

A quick Googling found this: http://www.2kracing.com/Product/72699.html

I got some V-10's from Discount Tire Direct! $135 per wheel in 18x7.5 great deal if you ask me. If anyone still wants some I would call and order right now, they just received a shipment from MOMO and from what I can tell they are trying to get rid of them thus the reduced price.

^My only concern is the 7.5" width. The 19's look sick, but I would be down for 18's so I can keep working my mod list out. Has anyone seen pics of the 18's on an RX8? I'm wondering if they look okay...

Never - if the price is right you can have my 19" Momos and I'll even deliver them in person next time I am up in the McHenry County area. You have to take the tires with them though, Nitto NT555s

Hmmmm...super enticing! PM me with the "right" price, and I'll probably be down! Oh, and damn...you're up in the McHenry County area? Hahaha, what are the odds of that?

Sorry for whoring the last several posts, BUT...I went to the Discount Tire store today to see some other Momo wheels in person before ordering and noticed they had a set of Momo V10's chillin with a sale sign. They were only 17s and not the right bolt pattern, so I had the manager look into finding a set. The only set he was able to find in silver were 18's for $150. Thanks to DominatorX, I dropped the Discount Tire Direct price and he matched it. VERY NICE! I should be rockin' some V10's in a week or so. They're not going to be quite as sick as Alucard's instant cult classic 19's, but my wallet thanks me so I can spend the coin on other projects with the car!

Sorry, Alucard, but you did start something here...

I would love to add some more mods to the 8 but the money just isn't there right now. I would love to get a body kit... at least an appearance package, if only I can find a good deal.
