I'd definitely have to see those on an RX-8 before I'd shell out the dough for them. They are very different and they might look totally cool, but they don't appeal to me on first look.

the site lets you see the wheels on a corvette.

while the rims themselves don't seem that bad, on the vette they look pretty horrible.

I think it's pretty damn sweet. I wish 1) they would tell how much they weigh and 2) it came in white.

Totally freaking awesome in my opinion. It's the "Speed SP1" version. When you get it pulled up on the webpage, click the spin on the bottom of the page. It shows the wheel in motion. AWESOME. Just wonder how they look on a 8. Oh and they cost around $1200-$1400 a piece. So $4800-$5600 for all 4 wheels. Here are the sizes they offer.

Size Offset Finish
20x8.5 38 painted
20x10 32 painted
20x8.5 38 chrome
20x10 32 chrome
19x8.5 25 painted
19x10 27 painted
19x8.5 25 chrome
19x10 27 chrome

The polished aluminum version of those on the Ferrari Modena Spyder are hideous looking.

I went to Tire Rack and looked at all 28 wheels they offer for the 8 on the car and not one of them appeal to me in the least. They all looked ghetto.

If you go to wheelandtiredesigns.com they sell these wheels and are in the find a dealer section on davin wheels web site. Anyways, those are not the only sizes they come in, go to the before mentioned site and you will find more sizes in this same wheel.

The SSR GT3 looks ghetto to you?

Anyway, the only wheel in that list that is going to fit the RX-8 is the 20X8.5 with the 38mm offset. Those will be some thin tires.

The SP2's on the Spyder look absolutely incredible IMO.

I like the black on chrome better.
