Ok. I am so excited. I just ordered the wheels black/blue. I cant wait. Did you guys get a tracking number? How long did it take you nitsua to get your order? I know that it will take longer though with the powder coating.
Thanks guys for all of the info,
Alex

they should send you a tracking number. they were out of stock when i ordered them, so it took about two weeks.

EDIT: c0ldf1ame what size tires do you have? they look a little skinny.

BigRed- as for your question about the lug nuts- the stock ones are not weak, it's just that that some stock lug nuts are not the right shape for the wheels. this is my first mazda though, so i'm not sure if you NEED new lug nuts. that's a question best left to the wheel supplier. i had these left over from another set of wheels and wanted to use them.

I think until they dont have any more of the wheels. It may take a while it sounds like.

should keep going till they run out... It sounded like they had 4-12 sets left, but they fit a lot of mazdas, not just rx-8, among other car makes. So who knows how long.

My order went through

Its been raining here for the last two days, so I will try to get some nice pics this weekend.

What color did you go with? I have a SS too and can't decide between silver, gunmetal or black/blue.

I wish there was an option for gunmetal (or black) with polished lip. Oh well.
