Does anyone know these rims from Mazdaspeed ?
 
Him

I've seen those rims at japanparts.com :

http://www.japanparts.com/images/Ima...base=1&no=3374

Now my question : They should be a result of an cooperation between Mazdaspeed and Enkei. Is is possible to get the Type of the rims ?

Did anyone now, from where i can get them for a good price ?

Is it possible to get the rims with a smaller offset then 50+ or with a bigger size (19'') ?

Did anyone have pics with an 8, wearing those rims ? :)

Yeah, with those you aren't getting any different offsets or sizes.

BUT, you can check out Advan Model 5s and Advan Model T5s for something similar. They look almost the same, have better offsets/widths, and come in 19's if thats what you are going for.

Ok. I've seen the advan rims here too, they look pretty nice too. But i can't find any information about the weight of one rim. I want to have better looking and lighter rims on my rx-8 :)

So the original rim have approximatly 10 kilogramms per rim. Is the advan in 19'' or 18'' ligher ?

looks like it's one of those wheels that comes on a mazdaspeed car. kind of like the racingharts wheels from a mazdaspeed protege. you most likely not going to find different size for it, but they looks pretty good.

I think the Advans are forged, so they should be a good few pounds lighter than stock. Check out the "Calling all Advans" thread. I know there are a few people that have them, mabe someone who has them can help you out with the weight.

EDIT: My bad, they are not forged, they are MAT processed. It gives similar results to forging, but its not the same. Check The Enkei Site for what it is.

Advan model t5s in 19x8.5 are about 20lbs....

so not heavier than stock, not a huge weight loss, but good seeing that its 19.
I weighed mine after i got em..
