PICS: RP03-RC 18x9.5 Winn BLUE8

Hi guys,

In my spare time i'm trying to get photos of various wheels i have in stock on my RX8. THESE WHEELS ARE FOR SALE btw. PM me if interested.

For the most part this is just to show guys what these look like installed on the RX8.

18x9.5 +45 5x114.3 WITH RT615 245/40/18.







Let me know what you think.

Thanks, Rishie

i actually like the RPF1-RC on my Winnig Blue better.

But i think the RP03-RC will look insane on black.

Damn ... I like the 2nd on better. Good size of them. Too bad I already have 2 sets of wheels ... the daily volks and the race enkies.

Curious as to how much each weighs?

No eta my friend on the SBC, so sorry. I know i've got you written down on my dry erase board. hehe.

I will quote you on the silver, cause SBC might take a year at this rate. It took 6 months just for me to get 4 sets of these.

I like the 2nd ones better too.
Do you have any pics of the car directly from the front? (with the wheels straight, preferably at a low angle?) I'm curious as to see how much those 9.5" stick out from the fenders.

They are like thinner versions of the Fikse FM5 with a little bevel to the edge. Real nice and smooth looking wheel.

As much as I would like to help you out, I'm going to wait on the SBC for my Tit Gray

I think you are right about the Brilliant Black cars, one of those guys needs to buy these!

So who wants some Two Piece Forged Rim Enkeis at an insane price. I am gonna dump both these sets for one week only. don't expect a miracle and like 50% off or anything. But it will be the darn best deal you can get. Wheels alone or with tires it doesnt' matter.

Wonderful fitment, i'll set them up with 275/35/18's on all corners mounted and balanced.

Please visit our subforum, AutoRnD, for this for sale thread.
