Just got off the phone with my local Mazda Stealership... Good news, we can get them by special order. Even better news, they're $1200 a piece. Yeah... Have fun with that...

What's the problem? $4800 for 8" wide wheels with a +50 offset sounds reasonable to me

Those are the 18" wheels that come on the sport through GT models, not the 19" that are on the R3. Nice find though.

R3's are 19's
"Strong, lighter 19-inch forged aluminum alloy wheels are paired with high-performance 225/40R19 tires that help maintain grip and vehicle control. "

Yeah, I noticed that, and then theirs charcoal. I'd be willing to bet if anything its the same design, but not same material.
or maybe its complete B.S.
