What does everyone think? I think the chrome deep dish 19"wheels would look nice on my black 8. Anyone know if they are compatible w the 8 and TPMS? Probably expensive though.

 

to blingy....for me...

 

...and ugly.

 

they look heavy but that could just be me

 

they look similar to alot of rims out right now

racing hart cx for example

 

They Look almost like the NKB wheels I am getting https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=30975 except the Veilside ones are heavier.

 

they also look like 5zigen hyper 5 zr.... and yeah they look heavy :/

 

Classic 5 spoke multi-piece design. Chrome is a little to "all show no go" [bling] for me. Not sure what this gives you that 100 other wheels currently on the market for probably less than half the price don't?

 

Good point RXhusker...maybe ill just go for silver axis hiro's

 

If you like the chrome, go for it. Right now chrome isn't as popular but it doesn't mean it won't be in the near future. Besides, who says your car has to look like everyone elses.

 

The Hiro's look like a great wheel at a decent price -- I have been thinking of those myself :D For some reason I keep getting tempted by the Volk SF Challenges or the fact that even though they are way too common now -- that the stock wheel look great -- especially when they are spinning.

 

i love those rims..but stricly ballers rims..

 

They are three piece forged wheels that are custom made to order. The chrome is only a paint like coating...so it's not heavy. The 5Zigen wheels are cast centers, and a lot heavier. A 19x10 weights around 25lbs. The face also comes in Silver, Polish, and custom colors.

 

thanx swifty...u have any idea of about how much they cost?

 

about $4k for the set. Same range as HRE wheels.

 

im guessin thats w/o tires since they are veilside?

 

yuppers, no tires included.

 

over priced

 

no they are market price.

 

a lot of money either way

 

To put it in perspective, those rims + tires is 20% the cost of the base 6MT RX-8.

 

thats a lot more money than i want to spend on wheels and tires

 

Can't you get the Andrew Racing wheels in a satin finish? Chrome is totally lame.

 

go to www.veilside.com/veilsideusa and look at the wheel. i think there are 3 different finishes.

 

haha...just go to page1 of this thread.
