I NEED NEW RIMS: plz help

hey guys, dont laugh but i bought my rx8 automatic...
as you know i get the 16inch wheels rather than the cool 18s.
i dont know how the 16s look but i think they might look weird.
do yall know of any new rims that look good on an rx8 that are 18-19 inches? also, do you know if ill be able to trade in my 16's?

It's hard to trade your 16s, but if you go to the appearance board you will find several threads that have pictures of different rims photoshopped onto the RX-8. I even found some that I like

Different rims will look good on differnt colors but in the end it all comes down to personal taste.

I have already ordered 19" AME 'excellent' gold chrome rims 4 my 8

these are them

Check the classifieds section of this forum. There are folks (Boowana at least) who have bought the polished 18" wheels and are trying to sell their stock 18"ers.

This is roughly how mine will end up look (and don't say "not riced" >< because this is how i want my car and it is MY CAR!!!)

It has my AME rims that i want, it's lowered and has no wing.
i also want RE Amemiya side skirts not the Rmagic one's i don't really like them but the rest i want!
