Need help finding out what wheels are on this 8
 
I was reading this other thread and came accross this image, does anybody know the name of these wheels, who makes them and where i can find them?

robertdot 06-17-2004 04:48 PM

There is a thread about this already. Auto Bahn Strasse or something like that is the name of the thread. See if they said it there / ask Japan8.

gcar76 06-17-2004 04:58 PM

Na, I’ve looked and ask there to, that’s why I decided to create a new thread. Maybe more people would look at this one and help me find an answer, but thaks for trying to help out.

Those look very close to R1 Racing's F3 Forged RS-5

http://www.emwheels.com/wheels.asp?id=2

or try OZ racing's Canyon II PL

http://www.ozracing.com/eng/car/inde...am=2&wheel=24#

Which is very similar if you don't want to spend the money for R1's forged rims.

Ole Spiff 06-18-2004 01:53 AM

My bad; I didn't realize until I did a price check, that the Canyon II PL is as much as the R1 Forged rims. Sorry...

gcar76 06-18-2004 11:57 AM

yeah they look like them, thank you. I will keep looking.

Jump120MPH 06-28-2004 06:00 PM

did you find them yet? Those are some sweet wheels.

gcar76 06-28-2004 06:14 PM

Na not yet, Im still on the hunt for them. Im trying to track down the wheels and the body klit. Japan8 is gona look into it some more for us.

mysql101 06-28-2004 06:25 PM

those rims are sick.

mikeb 06-28-2004 07:17 PM

those rims are so nice


I guess 800.00 or so each

waijai 06-30-2004 12:49 AM

Those look like Maya RT5's to me.

Right on, those are the closes ones I've seen so far, Thanks for the info.

gcar76 06-30-2004 11:03 AM

Here is a better look at them. They are called "MAIDO RT5" wheels, here is a link to there site

http://www.maidowheels.com/wheels.asp

Very similar, but not exactly the same.

Peakster 06-30-2004 12:31 PM

Forget about the wheels...how did they put on those "eyebrows?" The car looks mean!

gcar76 06-30-2004 01:53 PM

Those eyebrows are from a company in Japan by the name of AU-TO BAHN SPORTS, you can find more info about them on these threads:

https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=32654

or

https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=30415

But a quick an easy way to make them is by using vinyl.

mikeb 06-30-2004 03:29 PM

I have evo-r.net eyelids
and they are real aggressive

\\Konig\\ 06-30-2004 04:32 PM

what bumper is that in the front? I think it looks as good as the ms kit! reminds me of a ferrari though...

I was thinking the same thing, kinda like a 360. I never thought a sharp edge up front would look good, but I just checked out EastMoon's links; damn, I really like this kit. The quad pipes and scoop on the side skirt make it look even more Ferrari-esque.
AU-TO Bahn Sports Type S
Notice that shot where you can see a seam where the eyelids meet the fender, so it isn't one-piece as the large picture seems to imply.

waijai 06-30-2004 11:46 PM

I'm digging those mirrors too!

Ole Spiff 07-01-2004 01:22 AM

I think I found them; they're by Maya:

Expensive too...

Japan8 07-01-2004 08:16 AM

Wrong wrong and wrong. Nice try... There's something that can be said for calling the guys who have them on their car. :D Check the bodykit thread again.

Ole Spiff 07-01-2004 04:30 PM

Ever consider that River-Side may make their rims for other companies like so many do? Did you check the link I posted? The Maya rims are identical to the TrafficStar RTS rims; probably made by River-Side and rebranded.

gcar76 07-02-2004 11:04 AM

True, True but it looks like the Maya wheels spokes are not as wide as the ones on the AU-TO BAHN Sports ride. Japan8 called them and found out they are called "Traffic Star" made by Riverside.

gcar76 07-02-2004 11:11 AM

Found THEM!!! here is a link to there site, yeah baby!!!! I'm getting those.

http://www.river-side.co.jp/

They are called TRAFFICSTAR RTS
