I think 5 spokes are sexier than 7.

There are quite a few folks with the Hiros, but with that fact aside, I think they are a better looking wheel. Personally, I wouldn't get a set of wheels just because they're unique. They may be exclusive when you first buy them, but soon enough (especially if they're affordable and nice looking), more people will get them. And if you're like me, I can't afford to swap out wheels every other year. That would be nice though.

to me they are pretty nice in their own respects. im not really set on either of these, just trying to narrow down my decisions.

even tho hiros r played out, and i will be the hypocrite in about 5 weeks, id tell u to get hiros, the 5 spoke is so clean and it says "even tho i put aftermarket parts on my car, i can still be an adult about it"

with 7 spokes....8, 9, 10 etc it just doesnt look as nice.

on a secondary reason, since ur car is black like mine id love to see black hiros on it so i can see what id look like, post pics afterwards~!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't even know they came in Black. I thought it was offered only in anthracite and silver.

I vote for Hiros. Meanwhile, here's a kitty. Nicer than using dollar bills.

I just purchased a new set of wheels and was considering the widetracks. I called the guys at axis and they said they would not fit. He did not really give me a reason why though. He was not very helpful. He also said only 19" hiro's will fit on a rx-8, and I know I have seen 18" on peoples cars here on this site. Just thought I would give you the heads up.
