Subscribed. I want these wheels. What color do you all think would look good with phantom blue? I'm thinking brushed titanium. I know, i know, it's up to me cause it's my car and whatever I think looks good is what I should get, but just wanted to get people's opinion.

roidz: brushed titanium would look awesome. If they have a darker tone like hyperblack would be my preference tho for your car.

Thanks Atilla. Question. How come a lot of people are suggesting 19's in this wheel? I've always thought 18's with a drop was the way to go and it seemed a lot of others had this same belief, but I'm seeing a lot of people suggesting 19's in this wheel.

hell if i know...

to each their own i suppose.


19's would definitely be a nice fit on a lowered car - but my reasoning against going 19's was price. Not just for the rims but for tires. lol - i'm medium ballin' man - i gotta watch my wallet.

if you got with 19's, you don't really need an aggressive drop to look nice (like if you had my kind of drop)- if you go 18's - just make sure you're lowered pretty well like angel to close in on the wheel gap or like The Reverend for the proper stance fitment.

Hope this ^^ rambling was some kind of help to you...

maybe 19's would lead to a tad bit more concavity with these wheels?? that's all i can think of b/c i think you're right...in general, most peeps stick with 18's and a drop on the rx8. 19's are expensive, and typically heavier, which doesn't suit the 8.

Yeah, it helps. I know that everyone has their own opinion on what looks best and if it hurts handling or what not. I will definitely be lowering mine when I get my wheels and I've always thought I would get 18's but then I saw a few people recommend 19's it got me thinking.

If you're debating on what you should spend your money on based on what people are tellin you - you should look at their ride n' ask yourself if their taste and style is worth your money

If not, F them and go with what you think is nice
