Question Looking for Chrome 5 spoke rims Suggestions?

I have been looking for some rims for my 8. I have found the Lexion 302. 19x8 F & 19X10 R. I do not want anything bigger than 19". Chrome Five Spoke with a good size lip around the wheel. Anybody have anymore suggestions besides the lexions?

Aww, damn, I thought they came in chrome....SOB, sorry, my bad. I just got the hyper black, they are kick *** wheels. The lip around the wheel is chrome, which reflects the spokes, omg, these wheels are just awesome!
Again, my apologies, I truly thought they were available in chrome!

I think they would look awesome on your car, but, then again, I am biased, I am absolutely smitten with these wheels.

Do you have a link for them?

I got a 2699.00 shipped for wheels and tires (Toyo's) for the lexions. Is that a bad price?

I have also been looking for 5 spokes....probably in chrome or machined. I have norrowed it down to 3 choices.

1. MRR HR2 - nice 5 spoke. Spokes come out to edge of wheel. Best veiwed on mrrwheels.com. Around $975 for machined, $1250 ish for chrome. I am close to ordering these...maybe. I am going staggered 19x9.5 et 45 rear, 19x8.5 et45 front.

2. Lexion 503. 2 piece rays wheel. Nice 5 spoke staggered with lip and rivets. Machined face. I really like these also. Availabe 19 x10 et45 and 19 x9 et43. Not sure if these are available in chrome. I guess you could chrome the centers yourself. Tires and rims in machined finish around $2550 Shipped.

3. Zenetti Five. Love these also. I think these come in 19 x 9.5 et 38 and 19 x 8 et 32. Chrome finish around $300 - $350 each.

Chrome exchange. Go to ebaymotors and do a search for rx8 wheels. It should come up. I think they are about $550 plus $150 shipping both ways....so around $700 total.
