Im going to order the re amemiya rims for my rx-8... ya know the rims with the rotaries on them... im leaning towards the gold......Will that look funny on a titanium grey rx-8?

jonnyb

i think it would depend on what shade of gold they are. personally i would get black or silver.

Sue Esponte

Ditto on the black or silver. A monotone grey look could be cool.

I agree with the black or silver, powdercoated would look good with your car as well. I am not a fan of gold rims in any application, but different strokes, right?
Can you tell me where I can get a look at the rims you are talking about. They sound interesting. Thanks

here ya go guys

This is the only website i could find that had them... Im sure there are more.. Whaddaya think of them?

RX8_ML

polished lip and all. rivets, deep dish baby!

mikeb

those are sweet
but what do they cost?

Sue Esponte

Not my taste but that's what makes the world go around. A set of BBS LMs or OZ Superleggeras might look good.

I like the rims, but I still wouldn't go gold. I would go all silver. Very nice though. Let us know what you do.

RX8_ML

well i can get them for 750 each,
i haven't seen other websites other than streetline that have them

Sue Esponte

$750 EACH?! I hope that includes a nice set of Michelin Pilot Sports.

-Eric

mikeb

I dont think I have ever seen those on a car in the US

RX8_ML

yeah nobody has them in the u.s! lol i'd like to be the first one to have them..

Sue Esponte

How heavy are they? They look like they weigh a ton!

RX8_ML

you know.. i dont know.. lol to be honest i really dont know much, i have the catalog but i dont read japanese.. sucks doesn't it

Mikelikes2drive

i say, you just get some nice volks with some really nice tires. Those rims aren't worth 750 each, plus the shipping and handling... NOT WORTH IT!

RX8_ML

you think so lol, i dont know i'd give my left arm to be original and diferent alll the dang time!

xs enginering has those wheels on there yellow rx7. I believe it was in super street magazine a couple of months ago.

RX8_ML

yeah the supra 7 that rx-7 has a JZ motor in it , very famous car

rudy8

hi
i have titanium grey and i was looking at the gold volks or gold mazdaspeed rims...i think it would look great but the re amemiya rims seem a little loud and flashy for a car like the 8.
check out rosenthals site. there are two good options there for alot less.

Sleeker...understated rims...that is what the RX needs IMO
