G35 rays on rx8

Hey guys i'm looking to get some spare drift wheels, G35 rays I know they are a staggered setup I was wondering if anyone has pictures them on their rx8 and what kind of tire sizes did you go with? And if you had a yellow rx8 what color would you paint them white, or bronze?

Ive always wanted to see these on the 8 but could never find any pictures, I always see them on craigslist and think theyd look pretty good, or the TL type s wheels.

Id go with a gold/bronze ish color I think itd look pretty good

I think they look pretty good, probably look really good with some paint, just not a big fan of basic silver

If your drifting you don't want wider wheels in the back.

I'll say white. It will look brighter and it will look clean.

Anyone happen to know if the mazda rx8 centercaps fit the G35 wheels? lol I ended up painting it bronze. Sorry for the late response.

Wheels look good, I still am waiting till I get new tires to paint mine, are you still running the G35 tire size?

Also no the RX 8 caps wont work.

naw running abit smaller sidewall, 245/35/19 on all four. Happen to know if our OEM centercaps fit these G35 wheels? Looking to get a set but not sure if it'll fit, looks to be about the same diameter but looks can be deceiving

i got me a set of g35 rims after seeing how nice those rims look on the rx8. when i tried to put them on they didnt fit! apparently, they are 1mm smaller than the rx8's. I dont know what happens here because i see those rims worked for a lot of people. let me know if anyone knows something i can do. or if im doing something wrong.
Thanks
