Are these the new Mazdaspeed rims?

I know at the 06 Tokyo show, the new Enkei Mazdaspeed rims were introduced on a ,- Im familiar with those threads and its look. My question is, on the other 8s at the TAS, namely the FEED 8 and the black one in the pic, ...what wheels are those?

Are they the Mazda speed ones? While similar in design they look bigger, and may/may not have the mazdaspeed logo. I can't seem to find other angles. Also, on Japanparts.com, it only comes in 18'' and the pics below seem larger than 18s.

I love the look and am very close to getting the new Mazdaspeed ones from japanparts, but curious as to if they are the same as the ones below.

Also, does anyone know of any other brands that make a wheel close to this look? I really like it, but its hard to find one like this..thanks.

I didn't know Advan made a 20" version of those. I thought it was 17-19" only.

The 18x9 are $572 at Vivid Racing. $90 more if you want the chrome finish on them.

In the pic with the grey 8, you can clearly see an advert for the ADvan wheels by the edge of the front bumper. If you zoom in, you may even be able to see the sizing. It is possible that they are 19's, but I would tend to agree with the consensus that they are 20's.

19s are the biggest they made the Model 5's in.

Those are the new Advan AVS Model T5

These are the ones I ordered. I tried to order the Model 5's from Vividracing, but they can't get them any more. It's a 12 week wait for the Model T5's.
